Sink repair in Bishop's Hull

How we handle sink repair in Bishop's Hull

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. We are frequently asked to fix a crack near the taps and a chipped basin edge, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Landlord and trade work in Bishop's Hull

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Bishop's Hull, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, 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. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not overtighten taps

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
