Sink repair for Bogthorn homes

Sink repair at your home in Bogthorn

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with fine cracks across the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

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

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bogthorn as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What we are called out for in Bogthorn

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • An original basin worth saving

What your quote should include

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you are in Bogthorn and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Questions from Bogthorn

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BD22 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
