Sink repair for Low Moor homes

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

How we handle sink repair in Low Moor

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. Typical jobs include fine cracks across the glaze and cracks around the tap holes or waste, in enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

10 questions to ask before booking

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 usually the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Low Moor

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  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. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Low Moor questions

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Low Moor and the rest of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

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.
