Sink repair at your home in Pickhurst

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with an antique basin with chips and cracks starting at the waste, we can generally put it right, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.

Rural addresses like Pickhurst just need a little planning, and we’ll organise the visit.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Pickhurst

  • Belfast and butler sinks

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

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.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Pickhurst. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When to call us in Pickhurst

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Landlords with property near Pulborough station (about 1.4 miles south) use us between tenancies, so basins are repaired rather than replaced.

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

Pickhurst: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords with property near Pulborough station?

Of course: pictures and an address are all we need for a price.

Will you travel to Pickhurst?

We do: Pickhurst is covered like any town. Just mention any tricky access.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Pickhurst?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Pickhurst. Prices do not change with location.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

What do you need from me?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon. For a rural address like Pickhurst, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring everything needed for the sink repair, so there is no second trip.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

Should you replace it?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. For a rural home like those around Pickhurst, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
