What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Nocton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Nocton

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Do you need sink repair in Nocton?

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips around the rim

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Nocton: your questions answered

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Are you accredited?

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

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How much does sink repair cost in Nocton?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lincolnshire.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
