Sink repair near Woodford Bridge

Sink repair in Woodford Bridge without replacing anything

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Whether it’s knocks from hair straighteners and crazing in the glaze, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

Landlord and trade work in Woodford Bridge

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

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

Advice

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Woodford Bridge. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area

  • Chips around the rim

Choosing a repair company

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
