Sink repair for High Catton homes

Sink repair in High Catton, done in place

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on a built-in basin and a crazed, tired basin.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

Questions from High Catton

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in High Catton.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Are there extra charges for High Catton?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
