How we handle sink repair in Mowsley

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We regularly repair antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about a chipped vanity basin and cracks starting at the waste.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips around the rim

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mowsley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Mowsley: your questions answered

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is my repair covered?

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

Will it make a mess?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Normally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Mowsley

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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