Sink repair near Fletton

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

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.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Fletton

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Common reasons people in Fletton contact us are:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A crazed, tired basin

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • When it can be used again
