Sink repair near Paston

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Paston as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, whatever they’re made of. There’s no plumbing to disconnect. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are crazing in the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

Before and after: an old basin refinished to bright white

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Prices and what affects them

  • The size and number of damaged areas

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PE4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Common questions in Paston

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How much does sink repair cost in Paston?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

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.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repairing versus replacing in Paston

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

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