Sink repair at your home in Bealbury

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. If you’re dealing with an original basin worth saving and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can generally put it right, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Bealbury and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

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

Common questions in Bealbury

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

What affects the price in Bealbury

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Bealbury, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only

Don’t 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 and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
