Sink repair for Lewson Street homes

Sink repair in Lewson Street without replacing anything

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you’re dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and fine cracks across the glaze, we can normally put it right, on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What we are called out for in Lewson Street

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Can you quote from pictures?

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

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, and you will get a fixed figure back.
