Sink repair for Banstead homes

About our sink repair in Banstead

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped toiletries and a chipped vanity basin, we can typically put it right, on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.

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

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

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

What we’re called out for in Banstead

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

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

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Banstead questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Surrey, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Banstead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repair or replace in Banstead?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Banstead, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
