Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Wake Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Sink repair in Wake Green, done in place

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are cracks starting at the waste and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Widespread crazing

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Wake Green questions

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you work in Wake Green?

We do. We send a technician to Wake Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we’re called out for in Wake Green

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • An original basin worth saving

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What affects the price in Wake Green

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
