Sink repair in Four Lanes without replacing anything

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Common call-outs are for a period basin that needs restoring and chips around the rim, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Four Lanes

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Prices and what affects them

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

Where the damage is and how we get to it
The material and finish
How hard the colour is to match
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

Details of any past repairs
One picture of the entire basin
A close-up of the damage, in focus
The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures 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.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
We polish the repair to blend it in.
You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
