How we handle sink repair in Perry Barr

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about a period basin that needs restoring and fine cracks across the glaze.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Perry Barr and across Birmingham.

Your questions about sink repair in Perry Barr

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your B42 postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

If you are in Perry Barr and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

How we price sink repair

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. 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 and leave the character intact.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
