About sink repair in Redcar and Cleveland

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, whatever they’re made of. Taps and wastes stay connected. We work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about fine cracks across the glaze and chips on the rim or front edge.

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. 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.

We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
The finish is matched to the glaze.
We polish the repair to blend it in.
The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Cost

Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Around Redcar

We visit homes around Church of St Peter, Lakes Primary School and Rye Hills School, among other places. The nearest railway station is Redcar East station, roughly 0.8 miles north-east. Further afield, we also cover the area around Skelton Castle (4 miles south-east) and Zetland Lifeboat Museum and Redcar Heritage Centre (1.1 miles north). Not far away are Eston Nab and Coatham Marsh.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

Whether we combine several jobs
Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The material
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

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

What it’s made of, if you know
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A close-up of the damage, in focus
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Redcar and Cleveland

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

Crazing in the glaze
A crack near the taps
A chipped vanity basin
A period basin that needs restoring

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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.

Redcar and Cleveland questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
