Sink repair for Wennington homes

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Sink repair in Wennington, done in place

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Whether it’s an antique basin with chips and a crack near the taps, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Questions from Wennington

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Are there extra charges for Wennington?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Wennington

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Wennington. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Wennington, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairing versus replacing in Wennington

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A fixed quote before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wennington

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
