How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

Your questions about sink repair in Burstwick

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across East Riding of Yorkshire.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Burstwick, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairs by material

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.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

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

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
