Sink repair for Broadheath homes

Sink repair at your home in Broadheath

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Common call-outs are for cracks starting at the waste and a crazed, tired basin, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: 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. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Broadheath, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairing versus replacing in Broadheath

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Landlord and trade work in Broadheath

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broadheath as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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

What we’re called out for in Broadheath

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Look out for these signs:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A period basin that needs restoring

Before you book anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended
