Sink repair in Burtle without replacing anything

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and chips from dropped toiletries.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Burtle questions

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Burtle and the rest of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do you work in Burtle?

We do. We send a technician to Burtle for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Burtle. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace in Burtle?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add 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.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our pricing.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
