Sink repair near Bicton

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use gentle cleaners

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Before and after: an old basin refinished to bright white

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bicton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out

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

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How your room will be protected
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Your questions about sink repair in Bicton

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

What happens next?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will you leave a mess?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your HR6 postcode.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
