Trusted sink repair in Ingoe

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

How we handle sink repair in Ingoe

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you’re dealing with damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a period basin that needs restoring, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Plumbing leaks

Materials we work on in Ingoe

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

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about sink repair in Ingoe

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

What do you need from me?
