Sink repair near Chieveley

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Sink repair in Chieveley without replacing anything

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you’re dealing with chips around the rim and a crazed, tired basin, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Your questions about sink repair in Chieveley

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What sink repair costs

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
