How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in North End

  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

  • Vanity unit basins

Landlord and trade work in North End

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North End as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around North End, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

North End: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How much does sink repair cost in North End?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
