Sink repair at your home in Hothersall

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are an original basin worth saving and chips on a built-in basin.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

Questions from Hothersall

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you work in Hothersall?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hothersall and the rest of Lancashire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Hothersall, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

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.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Honest limits

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

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

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

Materials we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PR3 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Get a quote

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Hothersall?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
