Sink repair in Holme without replacing anything

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We are often asked to fix a crack near the taps and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

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

Questions from Holme

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

How do I book?

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

What sink repair costs

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are

What we’re called out for in Holme

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A crack near the taps
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair cannot fix
