How we handle sink repair in Orcop Hill

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and a chipped basin edge.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  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. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

When to call us in Orcop Hill

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Questions from Orcop Hill

Do you come to Orcop Hill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Orcop Hill and the rest of Herefordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Orcop Hill?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HR2 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Repair or replace in Orcop Hill?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No need to remove anything

Read our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Orcop Hill. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
