About our sink repair in Burford

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We’re often asked to fix chips from dropped toiletries and a crack near the taps, across enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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.

Questions from Burford

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Are there extra charges for Burford?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you cover Burford?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Burford and the rest of Cheshire East. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

When to call us in Burford

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips on the rim or front edge

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done 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. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace in Burford?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why Burford clients choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Everything repaired in place

See our pricing.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What sink repair costs

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
