Sink repair in Hattoncrook

Sink repair in Hattoncrook, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about chips on the rim or front edge and a crack near the taps.

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

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

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.

What your basin is made of matters

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.

Period and antique

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

Landlord and trade work in Hattoncrook

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Your questions about sink repair in Hattoncrook

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Repair or replace in Hattoncrook?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
