Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Common questions in West Wickham

Do I have to be there?

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

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Get chips repaired early

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repairing versus replacing in West Wickham

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why West Wickham clients choose us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Read our prices page.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for West Wickham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Wickham

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
