How we handle sink repair in Mickley

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with a crazed, tired basin and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Common questions in Mickley

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work in Mickley?

We do. We send a technician to Mickley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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