Sink repair in Greenford

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

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

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

When to call us in Greenford

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips on a built-in basin

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

What we can’t put right

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

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing

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

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Common questions in Greenford

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Do you cover Greenford?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Greenford and the rest of Greater London. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Greenford?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
