About our sink repair in Millbrook

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks around the tap holes or waste and knocks from hair straighteners.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Common questions in Millbrook

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Common problems we fix in Millbrook

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Chips around the rim

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

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.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

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

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

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

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
