Sink repair in Meadgate West

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bath and North East Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Sink repair at your home in Meadgate West

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We are frequently asked to fix crazing in the glaze and a chipped basin edge, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Meadgate West. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually 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.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Meadgate West questions

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Usually, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you cover Meadgate West?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Meadgate West for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

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 finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
