Sink repair for Bridgetown homes

About our sink repair in Bridgetown

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks around the tap holes or waste and a period basin that needs restoring.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When a repair is not the answer

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

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

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

See our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

When to call us in Bridgetown

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
