How we handle sink repair in Ford Green

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or front edge and a crack near the taps, across Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why Ford Green customers choose us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

FAQs for Ford Green

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Ford Green and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

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