How we handle sink repair in Low Bradfield

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Common call-outs are for cracks starting at the waste and fine cracks across the glaze, across Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

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

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

What affects the price in Low Bradfield

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

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

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Your questions about sink repair in Low Bradfield

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Plumbing leaks

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

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
