About our sink repair in Kittle

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about knocks from hair straighteners and chips around the rim.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

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.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Kittle: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Kittle?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will there be a smell?

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

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Kittle?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
