Trusted sink repair in Horsebrook

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Sink repair at your home in Horsebrook

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. We’re often asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and a chipped basin edge, across enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Horsebrook and across Staffordshire.

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 work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What affects the price in Horsebrook

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back

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

Common problems we fix in Horsebrook

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips around the rim
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Horsebrook

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
