How we handle sink repair in Parton

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is usually repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and an antique basin with chips.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Parton

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Parton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Widespread crazing

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Parton, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Parton: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you come to Parton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Parton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Parton customers choose us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
