Need sink repair in Anlaby Common?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

About our sink repair in Anlaby Common

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s an original basin worth saving and chips on a built-in basin, we can normally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

FAQs for Anlaby Common

Are you accredited?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you need sink repair in Anlaby Common?

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Chips around the rim

Comparing quotes

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Anlaby Common

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins

Repair or replace in Anlaby Common?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
