Sink repair for East Winch homes

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for East Winch. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Sink repair in East Winch, done in place

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and a period basin that needs restoring.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally 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 start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
