Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and knocks from hair straighteners.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Great Brampton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Great Brampton. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Most customers in Great Brampton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Brampton

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix 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 to keep costs down.

Should you replace it?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why Great Brampton clients choose us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.
