What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Sink repair at your home in Holmbridge

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s an original basin worth saving and a chipped vanity basin, we can help, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Landlord and trade work in Holmbridge

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

What we work on

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

What we’re called out for in Holmbridge

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips around the rim

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  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

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HD9 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Holmbridge questions

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

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.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kirklees.

When can you do it?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
