Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

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

How we handle sink repair in Hanslope

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, in ceramic, composite and enamel. There is no plumbing to disconnect.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Get chips repaired early

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hanslope. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Most customers in Hanslope get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Do you need sink repair in Hanslope?

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crack near the taps

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hanslope, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
