About our sink repair in Hollins Green

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are an original basin worth saving and chips from dropped toiletries.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What affects the price in Hollins Green

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Your questions about sink repair in Hollins Green

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?

The entire UK, including all of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

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.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover Hollins Green?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hollins Green and the rest of Derbyshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

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

Surfaces we repair
