Common questions in White Post

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes White Post. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Repairing versus replacing in White Post

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for White Post. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Signs you need sink repair in White Post

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips

How to compare quotes

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

What we can’t put right

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

  • Plumbing leaks

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins

Can I fix it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
