Sink repair for Lower New Inn homes

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lower New Inn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

When to call us in Lower New Inn

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

Your questions about sink repair in Lower New Inn

What does sink repair cost?

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

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
