Sink repair for Hurlingham homes

About our sink repair in Hurlingham

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hurlingham as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hurlingham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Hurlingham: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Do I need to be at home?

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

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
