Sink repair near Mansfield

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Sink repair in Mansfield, done in place

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are an antique basin with chips and chips from dropped toiletries.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Your questions about sink repair in Mansfield

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

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

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Mansfield?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
