Your questions about sink repair in Wrelton

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Do you need sink repair in Wrelton?

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Wrelton. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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