Sink repair at your home in Hanthorpe

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or front edge and cracks starting at the waste, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

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

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.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What affects the price in Hanthorpe

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When to call us in Hanthorpe

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before booking

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hanthorpe use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace in Hanthorpe?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
