Sink repair near Rylstone

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

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

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

How we handle sink repair in Rylstone

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We are often asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and a period basin that needs restoring, across Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Rylstone questions

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Are there extra charges for Rylstone?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs

Most clients in Rylstone get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we are called out for in Rylstone

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A chipped vanity basin

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Should you replace it?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
