Trusted sink repair in Ickenham

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Sink repair at your home in Ickenham

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about a chipped basin edge and a crazed, tired basin.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ickenham. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Ickenham

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An original basin worth saving

Before you book anyone

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Ickenham: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How much does sink repair cost in Ickenham?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will you remove the sink?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

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. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Landlord and trade work in Ickenham

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
