Sink Repair across Inverclyde

Our sink repair service in Inverclyde

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We are frequently asked to fix cracks starting at the waste and a period basin that needs restoring, in Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

What it costs in Inverclyde

Repairing versus replacing

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching.

How the damage happens

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Crazing in the glaze

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inverclyde use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
