Sink repair for Bodle Street Green homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

About our sink repair in Bodle Street Green

We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are an antique basin with chips and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most customers in Bodle Street Green get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repairing versus replacing in Bodle Street Green

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business

Take a look at our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
