How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repairing versus replacing in Woodbeck

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When to call us in Woodbeck

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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.

Woodbeck: your questions answered

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Nottinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Landlord and trade work in Woodbeck

For anyone letting property in or around Woodbeck, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Woodbeck. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Woodbeck. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire basin

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

DIY kit or professional 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
