Sink repair for Lee Moor homes

Sink repair in Lee Moor, done in place

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and a crazed, tired basin.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lee Moor

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Lee Moor

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

What we are called out for in Lee Moor

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Lee Moor. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our pricing.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
