Sink repair in Pinckney Green

Common problems we fix in Pinckney Green

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

About our sink repair in Pinckney Green

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are a crack near the taps and chips on the rim or front edge.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Work for landlords and builders

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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Questions from Pinckney Green

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Generally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
