Sink repair for Purton Stoke homes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

About our sink repair in Purton Stoke

We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are an original basin worth saving and chips on a built-in basin.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

Your questions about sink repair in Purton Stoke

Will you remove the sink?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job 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. 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 it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What sink repair costs

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your 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
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Purton Stoke. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
