Sink repair in Brompton

Brompton: your questions answered

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Are you accredited?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Sink repair at your home in Brompton

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s a crack near the taps and a period basin that needs restoring, we can generally put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Brompton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brompton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Brompton

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

Repair or replace in Brompton?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book

Read our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back

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

Common problems we fix in Brompton

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Look out for these signs:

  • A crack near the taps
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

Comparing quotes

  • How your room will be protected
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site
