How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How we handle sink repair in Wannock

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’re frequently asked to fix crazing in the glaze and cracks around the tap holes or waste, on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

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

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Wannock

Will it make a mess?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How much does sink repair cost in Wannock?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

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

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you work in Wannock?

We do. We send a technician to Wannock for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Wannock included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 pictures.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
