Sink repair in Redstocks

Sink repair in Redstocks without replacing anything

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s cracks around the tap holes or waste and knocks from hair straighteners, we can generally put it right, on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Redstocks. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins

Landlord and trade work in Redstocks

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
