How we handle sink repair in Holmfirth

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We’re often asked to fix an antique basin with chips and cracks starting at the waste, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
