About our sink repair in Lyndhurst

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you are dealing with knocks from hair straighteners and a crack near the taps, we can usually put it right, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Lyndhurst. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lyndhurst as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about sink repair in Lyndhurst

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
