How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours.

  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. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Sink repair in Codrington without replacing anything

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is typically repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We’re frequently asked to fix chips around the rim and chips from dropped toiletries, across antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Codrington

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Do you need sink repair in Codrington?

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • An original basin worth saving
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Codrington

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Questions from Codrington

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Codrington. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you’re in Codrington and want a price, 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.
