Sink repair for Heath End homes

Sink repair in Heath End without replacing anything

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We are often asked to fix damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a chipped basin edge, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Questions from Heath End

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Are there extra charges for Heath End?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

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.

What affects the price in Heath End

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire basin

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  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. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
