Why repair rather than replace?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Do you need sink repair in Farnhill?

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips around the rim
  • A crack near the taps

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Farnhill

For anyone letting property in or around Farnhill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BD20 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Farnhill

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Farnhill

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

If you’re in Farnhill and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
