Sink repair near Halls Green

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

About our sink repair in Halls Green

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Typical jobs include cracks around the tap holes or waste and an original basin worth saving, in vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Halls Green

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Your questions about sink repair in Halls Green

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Signs you need sink repair in Halls Green
