Sink repair at your home in Haltham

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and people most often call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a period basin that needs restoring.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Haltham

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LN9 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing

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

Materials we work on in Haltham

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

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
