How we handle sink repair in Lackham

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and people most often call us about fine cracks across the glaze and chips around the rim.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Repairs by material

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.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

For landlords and businesses

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.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we are called out for in Lackham

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An original basin worth saving

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lackham. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Lackham get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
