DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Wendover Dean: your questions answered

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How much does sink repair cost in Wendover Dean?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HP22 postcode.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

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

Our hiring checklist

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
