The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Chorlton: your questions answered

Do you cover Chorlton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Chorlton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Common problems we fix in Chorlton

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A crazed, tired basin

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel

How to compare quotes

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Chorlton. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use mild cleaners only

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Chorlton

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
