When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Sink repair in Parbold without replacing anything

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We are often asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and chips around the rim, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What affects the price in Parbold

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Parbold, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repairing versus replacing in Parbold

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Parbold. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Choosing a repair company

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Common questions in Parbold

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.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

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

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
