Need sink repair in Northowram?

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Sink repair at your home in Northowram

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include a period basin that needs restoring and knocks from hair straighteners, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Choosing a repair company

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

  • We leave the room as we found it

For landlords and businesses

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
