About our sink repair in Allhallows

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are an original basin worth saving and cracks starting at the waste.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Your questions about sink repair in Allhallows

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Should you replace it?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Medway and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
