Sink repair near Collingham

Sink repair in Collingham without replacing anything

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is usually repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are a crack near the taps and knocks from hair straighteners.

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

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Repair chips before they stain

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, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Collingham

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Common questions in Collingham

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Collingham and the rest of Leeds. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you work in Collingham?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Collingham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Is my repair covered?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Our hiring checklist

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  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 mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Collingham, and we will reply with a fixed price.
