Sink repair in Goginan without replacing anything

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about crazing in the glaze and an antique basin with chips.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Goginan questions

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Frequently. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What affects the price in Goginan

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us
