Sink repair for Netley Marsh homes

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

About our sink repair in Netley Marsh

We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We are frequently asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and a crack near the taps, across enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

What affects the price in Netley Marsh

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Netley Marsh. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

How the visit works

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

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

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

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

When to call us in Netley Marsh

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • An original basin worth saving

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to care for the finish
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
