Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Woodmancote

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

Aftercare tips

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

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use gentle cleaners

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Signs you need sink repair in Woodmancote

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A period basin that needs restoring

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Common questions in Woodmancote

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?

The entire UK, including all of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Repairs by material

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
