About our sink repair in Lostock Gralam

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and people most frequently call us about an original basin worth saving and fine cracks across the glaze.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

What affects the price in Lostock Gralam

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

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Lostock Gralam

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

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

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

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Lostock Gralam

FAQs for Lostock Gralam

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Lostock Gralam?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your CW9 postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
