Sink repair in Cheswardine

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

Sink repair in Cheswardine without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix chips from dropped toiletries and fine cracks across the glaze, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Repair chips before they stain

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

When to call us in Cheswardine

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A crack near the taps
  • A chipped vanity basin

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cheswardine

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cheswardine use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Your questions about sink repair in Cheswardine

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Cheswardine included. Travel is included in the price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
