Sink repair in Mylor Bridge without replacing anything

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a crazed, tired basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Landlord and trade work in Mylor Bridge

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

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.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Widespread crazing

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

Mylor Bridge questions

Will you remove the sink?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
