Sink repair for Port Mholair homes

Common questions in Port Mholair

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Port Mholair.

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How much does sink repair cost in Port Mholair?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Sink repair in Port Mholair, done in place

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is normally repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and fine cracks across the glaze.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Common problems we fix in Port Mholair

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips around the rim

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price
