  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Plumbing leaks

About our sink repair in Londonthorpe

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We’re often asked to fix a crack near the taps and an original basin worth saving, in Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Repair chips before they stain

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Londonthorpe

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Londonthorpe get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Londonthorpe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in Londonthorpe

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
