Trusted sink repair in Amblecote

Sink repair in Amblecote, done in place

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about chips on the rim or front edge and cracks starting at the waste.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Common questions in Amblecote

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dudley.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you disconnect the taps?

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

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

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

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

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

What we work on

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

How we price sink repair

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Amblecote

Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An antique basin with chips

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How to care for the finish
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
