How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Get chips repaired early

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

About our sink repair in Lewsey

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Whether it’s a period basin that needs restoring and chips on the rim or front edge, we can help, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lewsey and across Luton.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

We do not add 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.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Lewsey and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlord and trade work in Lewsey

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lewsey use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Lewsey questions

Are there extra charges for Lewsey?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Lewsey?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LU4 postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do I need to be at home?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What do you need from me?

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

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

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

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
