Sink repair in Hamble-le-Rice

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Widespread crazing

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle sink repair in Hamble-le-Rice

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. We are often asked to fix a chipped basin edge and chips from dropped toiletries, in enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hamble-le-Rice as everywhere else we work.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Hamble-le-Rice: your questions answered

Do you work in Hamble-le-Rice?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Hamble-le-Rice and the rest of Hampshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We don’t add 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.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
