Sink repair near Chewton Keynsham

Sink repair in Chewton Keynsham, done in place

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. If you are dealing with an original basin worth saving and crazing in the glaze, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Chewton Keynsham

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What areas do you cover?

All of Bath and North East Somerset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do you need sink repair in Chewton Keynsham?

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Chewton Keynsham?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Take a look at our full price list.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
