Sink repair in Brampton

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

How we handle sink repair in Brampton

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and people most frequently call us about cracks starting at the waste and an antique basin with chips.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Brampton

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Brampton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Do not overtighten taps

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
