Sink repair in Bramdean

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Sink repair at your home in Bramdean

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Whether it’s a period basin that needs restoring and crazing in the glaze, we can generally put it right, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bramdean as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

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

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Signs you need sink repair in Bramdean

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Hampshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Bramdean: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
