Sink repair in Hollym

Sink repair in Hollym without replacing anything

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you are dealing with cracks starting at the waste and a period basin that needs restoring, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Hollym questions

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use gentle cleaners

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Hollym

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Hollym

For anyone letting property in or around Hollym, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, 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. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
