Sink repair in Edgehill

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Sink repair in Edgehill, done in place

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Typical jobs include an antique basin with chips and a chipped basin edge, in Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Take a look at our pricing.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Edgehill

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Edgehill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Edgehill

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Edgehill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Edgehill

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you cover Edgehill?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Edgehill. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Signs you need sink repair in Edgehill

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Crazing in the glaze

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How soon you can use it again
