Sink repair for Bonchurch homes

Sink repair at your home in Bonchurch

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Common call-outs are for a chipped basin edge and fine cracks across the glaze, across Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A period basin that needs restoring

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Bonchurch

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Can I fix it myself?

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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  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. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bonchurch

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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.
