Sink repair in Micklefield, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and an antique basin with chips.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire basin

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs

FAQs for Micklefield

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is my repair covered?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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.

For landlords and businesses

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.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used 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. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
