Sink repair in Hamiltonhill, done in place

We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and an antique basin with chips.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When to call us in Hamiltonhill

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Chips around the rim

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Hamiltonhill, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hamiltonhill

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
