How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Sink repair at your home in North Brook End

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Typical jobs include damage to a basin in a vanity unit and cracks starting at the waste, across enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

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

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

North Brook End: your questions answered

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you come to North Brook End?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to North Brook End and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

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

What your basin is made of matters

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.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need sink repair in North Brook End?

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for North Brook End. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
