Sink repair in Badminton

Sink repair at your home in Badminton

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about crazing in the glaze and chips around the rim.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Badminton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Badminton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

Repairing versus replacing in Badminton

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One visit for most repairs

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
