Sink repair in Boughton, done in place
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. If you’re dealing with damage to a basin in a vanity unit and chips around the rim, we can generally put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Do you need sink repair in Boughton?
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Boughton: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
