Sink repair for Knowle Green homes

Sink repair in Knowle Green without replacing anything

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include a period basin that needs restoring and chips on a built-in basin, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

When to call us in Knowle Green

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips around the rim
  • An antique basin with chips
  • A chipped vanity basin

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lancashire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Knowle Green

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

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Widespread crazing

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

What we work on

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

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
