Sink repair in Walcot

What affects the price in Walcot

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How we handle sink repair in Walcot

From cloakroom basins to period pieces, whatever they’re made of. Taps and wastes stay connected. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped toiletries and an antique basin with chips, we can help.

Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Questions from Walcot

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Do you work in Walcot?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Walcot. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
