Sink repair for Freasley homes

Sink repair at your home in Freasley

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a crack near the taps and fine cracks across the glaze.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Freasley and across Staffordshire.

Questions from Freasley

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

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.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Are there extra charges for Freasley?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair chips before they stain

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When to call us in Freasley

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A crack near the taps
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. 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. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
