Book sink repair in New Arley

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use mild cleaners only

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Sink repair in New Arley without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. If you are dealing with chips on a built-in basin and an original basin worth saving, we can usually put it right, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins alike.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Landlord and trade work in New Arley

If you manage property in New Arley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we cannot put right

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

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

New Arley questions

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you need sink repair in New Arley?

Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Cracks starting at the waste

Choosing a repair company

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for New Arley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

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.
