How we handle sink repair in Hingham

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about a chipped vanity basin and an original basin worth saving.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Hingham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs

Read our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Questions from Hingham

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

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

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

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How soon can you come?

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

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
