Sink repair for Wallingford homes

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Wallingford. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Wallingford: your questions answered

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Wallingford and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Wallingford.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you come to Wallingford?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wallingford and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Repair or replace in Wallingford?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Wallingford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a couple of hours for most chips, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
