DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

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

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Normanby-by-Spital

  • Vanity unit basins

  • Belfast and butler sinks

Signs you need sink repair in Normanby-by-Spital

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips around the rim

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Normanby-by-Spital, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon 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. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
