Sink repair in Burtonwood

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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 mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

FAQs for Burtonwood

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Burtonwood?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will you remove the sink?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Prices and what affects them

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 many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole basin

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Burtonwood, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace in Burtonwood?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
