About our sink repair in Dayhouse Bank

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and knocks from hair straighteners.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Dayhouse Bank questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dayhouse Bank

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dayhouse Bank use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material 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 pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin

If you’re in Dayhouse Bank and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repairs by material

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.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
