Sink Repair in Walsall

About sink repair in Walsall

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. We’re often asked to fix cracks around the tap holes or waste and an original basin worth saving, across vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Cost

Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Repair or replace?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Signs you need sink repair

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

Look out for these signs:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Repairs by material

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
