Sink repair at your home in Derry

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We are frequently asked to fix chips on a built-in basin and fine cracks across the glaze, across vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

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

Cost

Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

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. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How the damage happens

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring

Repairing versus replacing

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is.

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

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

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

FAQs for Derry

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there any odour?

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

Can landlords book you?

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

Do you come to Derry?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Derry. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

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 a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
