Lea End questions

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Lea End?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lea End. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

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

Common problems we fix in Lea End

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Chips around the rim
  • Cracks starting at the waste

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

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.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
