Trusted sink repair in Acrefair

Sink repair in Acrefair without replacing anything

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are fine cracks across the glaze and chips on a built-in basin.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Your questions about sink repair in Acrefair

Is it messy?

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

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How much does sink repair cost in Acrefair?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you accredited?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Common problems we fix in Acrefair

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Crazing in the glaze

Our hiring checklist

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Acrefair. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Landlord and trade work in Acrefair

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use mild cleaners only

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
