Sink repair in Martin's Moss

Sink repair at your home in Martin's Moss

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and crazing in the glaze.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Martin's Moss

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Cheshire East, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

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

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

Repairing versus replacing in Martin's Moss

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our pricing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Martin's Moss

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Martin's Moss. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Martin's Moss

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
