Trusted sink repair in Hollinthorpe

How we handle sink repair in Hollinthorpe

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or front edge and a period basin that needs restoring.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What we cannot put right

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

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Hollinthorpe?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

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

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 we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LS26 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Do you need sink repair in Hollinthorpe?

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin
