Sink repair near Great Rissington

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Sink repair in Great Rissington without replacing anything

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about chips on the rim or front edge and cracks around the tap holes or waste.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What affects the price in Great Rissington

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs 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 there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you don’t 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, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Great Rissington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Great Rissington questions

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Great Rissington?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you cover Great Rissington?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Great Rissington and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
