Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Sink repair in Nether Langwith, done in place

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about a period basin that needs restoring and a crack near the taps.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Nether Langwith as everywhere else we work.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Nether Langwith. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Nether Langwith, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Nether Langwith

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
