Sink repair for Oughtrington homes

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Materials we repair

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

About our sink repair in Oughtrington

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. Whether it’s chips on the rim or front edge and chips on a built-in basin, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oughtrington

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oughtrington use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Oughtrington questions

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Oughtrington, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
