Sink repair for Glen Village homes

Sink repair at your home in Glen Village

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, whatever they’re made of. Taps and wastes stay connected. We work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and cracks starting at the waste.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire basin

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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlord and trade work in Glen Village

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Glen Village use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

When to call us in Glen Village

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A chipped basin edge

Comparing quotes

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
