How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

Should you replace it?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Questions from Little Ness

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Send us photos and we will tell you.

Do you work in Little Ness?

We do. Technicians travel to Little Ness from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Little Ness. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Little Ness and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
