Sink repair near Great Easton

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Get chips repaired early

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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

Sink repair at your home in Great Easton

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a chipped basin edge.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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 quote, not a guess.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Easton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Easton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Choosing a repair company

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  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

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

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
