About our sink repair in Lyndon

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about damage to a basin in a vanity unit and crazing in the glaze.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use gentle cleaners

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lyndon

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lyndon use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Lyndon, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Lyndon, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Lyndon. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Lyndon?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Lyndon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Your questions about sink repair in Lyndon

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you come to Lyndon?

We do. We send a technician to Lyndon for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

What we’re called out for in Lyndon

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge
