About our sink repair in Mickley Square

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are an antique basin with chips and a crazed, tired basin.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

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

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use gentle cleaners

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Landlord and trade work in Mickley Square

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northumberland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Widespread crazing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 usually cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
