Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

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

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gardenstown use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
