Sink repair in Newyears Green

How we handle sink repair in Newyears Green

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are a period basin that needs restoring and chips around the rim.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newyears Green. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Should you replace it?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
