Sink repair for Yelling homes

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

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

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

When to call us in Yelling

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Yelling. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Can I add another job to the visit?

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
