Sink repair in Dungworth

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Sink repair at your home in Dungworth

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about an antique basin with chips and cracks starting at the waste.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your S6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Signs you need sink repair in Dungworth

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Before booking anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Dungworth: your questions answered

Is it messy?

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Are there extra charges for Dungworth?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

How much does sink repair cost in Dungworth?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your S6 postcode.

Repair or replace in Dungworth?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dungworth

For anyone letting property in or around Dungworth, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
