About our sink repair in Greengairs

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a period basin that needs restoring.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

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

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Greengairs

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Greengairs as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Greengairs

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

What affects the price in Greengairs

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

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Greengairs, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Questions from Greengairs

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Greengairs included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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.
