Sink repair for Penkhull homes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Sink repair in Penkhull without replacing anything

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Common call-outs are for cracks starting at the waste and a chipped basin edge, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Penkhull as everywhere else we work.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Related advice

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

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

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Penkhull, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
