Sink repair in Edenthorpe

Questions from Edenthorpe

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Edenthorpe?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Sink repair in Edenthorpe without replacing anything

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and people most frequently call us about chips on a built-in basin and a crack near the taps.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

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

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 frequently lifts.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Edenthorpe

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

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Crazing in the glaze
