About our sink repair in Great Limber

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are fine cracks across the glaze and chips around the rim.

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

Signs you need sink repair in Great Limber

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Chips around the rim
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An antique basin with chips

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the price in Great Limber

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

Every job is a little different, 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.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

FAQs for Great Limber

Which areas do you work in?

All of North East Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will you remove the sink?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Treat the basin 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.
