About our sink repair in Hammerpot

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped toiletries and chips on a built-in basin, in Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

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

FAQs for Hammerpot

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Hammerpot?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Landlord and trade work in Hammerpot

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hammerpot as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
