Sink repair in Little Weighton without replacing anything

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped basin edge and a period basin that needs restoring.

Somewhere like Little Weighton, you may still have period sanitaryware, which are worth repairing rather than replacing. We work around original marks where possible.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Crazing in the glaze

Our hiring checklist

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Little Weighton. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
