Sink repair at your home in Barton Seagrave

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a period basin that needs restoring, on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

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

Landlord and trade work in Barton Seagrave

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barton Seagrave use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

Materials we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Barton Seagrave. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Barton Seagrave questions

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

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

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you come to Barton Seagrave?

We do. Technicians travel to Barton Seagrave from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
