Sink repair for Little Bollington homes

Sink repair in Little Bollington without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a crack near the taps, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What we are called out for in Little Bollington

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A chipped vanity basin

Comparing quotes

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
