Sink repair for Gairneybridge homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

About our sink repair in Gairneybridge

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, in ceramic, composite and enamel. Taps and wastes stay connected. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about cracks around the tap holes or waste and an antique basin with chips.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

The process

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KY13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Your questions about sink repair in Gairneybridge

Will you leave a mess?

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

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

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Signs you need sink repair in Gairneybridge

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

Before you book anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
