Sink Repair in Southend-on-Sea

How sink repair works in Southend-on-Sea

We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We are often asked to fix damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a crack near the taps, on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

What affects the price in Southend-on-Sea

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you are in Southend-on-Sea and want a price, photos 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.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Get chips repaired early

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

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