About our sink repair in Lullington

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or front edge and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

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

Questions from Lullington

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Lullington?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire basin

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lullington, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Lullington

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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 tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
