Sink repair in North Crawley

About our sink repair in North Crawley

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Common call-outs are for a crack near the taps and chips around the rim, on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around North Crawley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What affects the price in North Crawley

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from North Crawley

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How much does sink repair cost in North Crawley?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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