Sink repair at your home in Lound

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are crazing in the glaze and a chipped vanity basin.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When to call us in Lound

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Questions to ask before booking

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

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.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Repairing versus replacing in Lound

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Landlord and trade work in Lound

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lound as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
