Sink repair in Lower Burgate without replacing anything

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. If you’re dealing with knocks from hair straighteners and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can normally put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins alike.

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

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Widespread crazing

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

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lower Burgate. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Landlord and trade work in Lower Burgate

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Hampshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Do you need sink repair in Lower Burgate?

Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped basin edge

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
