Sink repair in Brimpton Common without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include a chipped vanity basin and an antique basin with chips, in antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

What we work on

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Landlord and trade work in Brimpton Common

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

What affects the price in Brimpton Common

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Brimpton Common. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Questions from Brimpton Common

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Are there extra charges for Brimpton Common?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
