Trusted sink repair in Hornsea

Sink repair in Hornsea, done in place

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and an antique basin with chips.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

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

FAQs for Hornsea

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Hornsea.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is my repair covered?

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

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

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

Materials we work on in Hornsea

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hornsea use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairing versus replacing in Hornsea

A basin is usually 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. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
