Trusted sink repair in Letham

Sink repair in Letham, done in place

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. If you’re dealing with chips around the rim and an antique basin with chips, we can usually put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Letham: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Letham. Prices don’t change with location.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you come to Letham?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Letham and the rest of Perth and Kinross. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Are there extra charges for Letham?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No extra charge for your area

See our prices page.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy 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.

Common problems we fix in Letham

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • An antique basin with chips

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair chips before they stain

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
