Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

About our sink repair in Bulmore

From cloakroom basins to period pieces, whatever they’re made of. There is no plumbing to disconnect. Whether it’s a chipped vanity basin and a crack near the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Questions from Bulmore

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Is my repair covered?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How much does sink repair cost in Bulmore?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Bulmore

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bulmore. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

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

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Do you need sink repair in Bulmore?

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Before you book anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
