Sink repair for Catshill homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Sink repair in Catshill without replacing anything

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, in ceramic, composite and enamel. Taps and wastes stay connected. If you are dealing with a chipped vanity basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

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.

Do you need sink repair in Catshill?

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Cracks starting at the waste

10 questions to ask before booking

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

For a price in Catshill, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Common questions in Catshill

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

How do I book?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Catshill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
