Sink repair in Hungerford Green without replacing anything

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips around the rim.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hungerford Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Hungerford Green customers choose us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the entire UK

Take a look at our full price list.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What affects the price in Hungerford Green

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Hungerford Green: your questions answered

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
