Sink repair at your home in Gateshead

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for chips on a built-in basin and knocks from hair straighteners, on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  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.

Prices in Gateshead

Repairing versus replacing

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together.

Signs you need sink repair

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A crack near the taps
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Gateshead, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

What sink repair costs

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gateshead. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in Gateshead, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Questions from Gateshead

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
