How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Do you need sink repair in Blankney?

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A crazed, tired basin

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Blankney

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

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

Materials we repair

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

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. 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. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
