Sink repair for Little Mountain homes

Sink repair in Little Mountain without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Common call-outs are for fine cracks across the glaze and a chipped vanity basin, on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

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

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repairing versus replacing in Little Mountain

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Little Mountain. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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

Little Mountain questions

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Little Mountain

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

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
