Sink repair in Malin Bridge, done in place

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 antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips around the rim and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace in Malin Bridge?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

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

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Questions from Malin Bridge

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you cover Malin Bridge?

We do. Technicians travel to Malin Bridge from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do I need to be at home?

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

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common problems we fix in Malin Bridge

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An antique basin with chips
