Sink repair in Halberton

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Sink repair in Halberton, done in place

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Typical jobs include an antique basin with chips and chips from dropped toiletries, in antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.

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

What a repair can’t fix

  • Plumbing leaks

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Halberton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should you replace it?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Halberton, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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