Sink repair in Hightown Green without replacing anything

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. If you are dealing with chips on a built-in basin and chips on the rim or front edge, we can normally put it right, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

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

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

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

Should you replace it?

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. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

FAQs for Hightown Green

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

How we price sink repair

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hightown Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
