When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise 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.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Burlton: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Typically, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Burlton, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What we’re called out for in Burlton

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Common reasons people in Burlton contact us are:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Chips around the rim

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burlton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
