About our sink repair in Hiltingbury

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 regularly repair vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and a chipped vanity basin.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Take a look at our full price list.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about sink repair in Hiltingbury

Are there extra charges for Hiltingbury?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How much does sink repair cost in Hiltingbury?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SO53 postcode.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Hiltingbury.

Do you cover Hiltingbury?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Hiltingbury and the rest of Hampshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What we are called out for in Hiltingbury

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

Common reasons people in Hiltingbury contact us include:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips around the rim
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips on a built-in basin

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled
