Sink repair in Lower Mickletown without replacing anything

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are fine cracks across the glaze and chips on a built-in basin.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Lower Mickletown questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Lower Mickletown

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Lower Mickletown. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole basin

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in Lower Mickletown

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
