Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Sink repair in Adel without replacing anything

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about fine cracks across the glaze and cracks starting at the waste.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Adel and across Leeds.

Common questions in Adel

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Do you need sink repair in Adel?

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Common reasons people in Adel contact us are:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A crack near the taps
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Adel

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

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

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Adel

Swapping a basin frequently 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. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
