Sink repair for Dungeness homes

Sink repair in Dungeness without replacing anything

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. If you are dealing with chips from dropped toiletries and a crazed, tired basin, we can typically put it right.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dungeness use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why Dungeness clients choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Common problems we fix in Dungeness

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

  • A crack near the taps
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • An original basin worth saving

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
