Questions from Vanbrugh Park Estate

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How much does sink repair cost in Vanbrugh Park Estate?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use mild cleaners only

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Do you need sink repair in Vanbrugh Park Estate?

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • An original basin worth saving

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
