Sink repair at your home in Ganavan

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a crazed, tired basin and chips around the rim.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ganavan. 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

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire basin

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Common problems we fix in Ganavan

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips around the rim
  • An original basin worth saving

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ganavan

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

FAQs for Ganavan

Do you cover Ganavan?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ganavan for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

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.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
