Sink repair in Burton

Sink repair in Burton, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s a chipped basin edge and chips on a built-in basin, we can help, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

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.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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

What affects the price in Burton

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

When to call us in Burton

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Look out for these signs:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped basin edge

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Burton

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One price list for the entire UK

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
