Sink repair at your home in Boughton Lees

Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are fine cracks across the glaze and chips from dropped toiletries.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Boughton Lees as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
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.
Common problems we fix in Boughton Lees
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Common reasons people in Boughton Lees contact us include:
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on a built-in basin
- An original basin worth saving
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if they find more damage
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
