About our sink repair in Churchstoke

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We’re frequently asked to fix a crack near the taps and a crazed, tired basin, across enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

What affects the price in Churchstoke

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, 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.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Churchstoke, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

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

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A crazed, tired basin

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
