Sink repair for Northill homes

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Sink repair in Northill, done in place

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on a built-in basin and a crazed, tired basin.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Questions from Northill

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Often. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover the entire of Central Bedfordshire?

Across the UK, so Northill is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I book?

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

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Northill

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Northill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
