About our sink repair in Hinton Parva

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is typically repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a chipped vanity basin.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hinton Parva use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hinton Parva. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  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

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Plumbing leaks

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Questions from Hinton Parva

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

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

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you come to Hinton Parva?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Hinton Parva. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
