Sink repair in Frankwell without replacing anything

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We are often asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and chips on a built-in basin, across Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Frankwell. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Frankwell. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Landlord and trade work in Frankwell

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Widespread crazing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Frankwell

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
