About our sink repair in Bournes Green

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is typically repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about an antique basin with chips and a chipped basin edge.

Somewhere like Bournes Green, an older basin can be hard to match if replaced. Repairing it keeps the bathroom as it is.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Bournes Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Questions from Bournes Green

Do you work for schools and businesses in Bournes Green?

Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. We’ll agree timings that suit the building.

Can you fix basins in a rental near Stroud station?

Yes. We repair basins between tenancies for landlords and letting agents, and we can quote for several properties together.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Common problems we fix in Bournes Green

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped basin edge

For older houses around Bournes Green, near landmarks such as Church of St Bartholomew, period sanitaryware is worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can.
