Sink repair for Watersfield homes

About our sink repair in Watersfield

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include chips from dropped toiletries and an antique basin with chips, in vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

FAQs for Watersfield

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

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.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. 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 and leave the character intact.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Watersfield. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Watersfield. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Our hiring checklist

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Watersfield

If you manage property in Watersfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
