Sink repair for Dalton homes

Sink repair at your home in Dalton

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We are often asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste, in Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to compare quotes

Dalton questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Are there extra charges for Dalton?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Rotherham. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Will you leave a mess?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dalton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
