Sink repair at your home in Balderton

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the rim or front edge and a crack near the taps, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Balderton

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you cover the whole of Flintshire?

The whole UK, including all of Flintshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for 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. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Balderton. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole basin

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Balderton

For anyone letting property in or around Balderton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
