Sink repair near Colworth

Colworth questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Sink repair in Colworth without replacing anything

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We are often asked to fix chips around the rim and a chipped vanity basin, in enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A chipped basin edge

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlords, agents and businesses in Colworth

If you manage property in Colworth, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

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.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing

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

What we work on

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

What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
