Your questions about sink repair in Hubberholme

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Widespread crazing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

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

Materials we repair

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

Signs you need sink repair in Hubberholme

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

  • A crack near the taps

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hubberholme as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Repair or replace in Hubberholme?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No extra charge for your area

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 generally cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

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.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price
