Sink repair for Pentir homes

Sink repair in Pentir without replacing anything

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about a chipped basin edge and crazing in the glaze.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire basin

You don’t 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Pentir questions

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you cover Pentir?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Pentir for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

For a price in Pentir, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need sink repair in Pentir

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
