Sink repair in Avon Castle without replacing anything

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, in ceramic, composite and enamel. Taps and wastes stay connected. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are an antique basin with chips and fine cracks across the glaze.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Avon Castle

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally 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, and the work is guaranteed.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Get chips repaired early

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When to call us in Avon Castle

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

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A crack near the taps

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  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. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Common questions in Avon Castle

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Avon Castle?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
