Sink repair in Saighton

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cheshire West and Chester and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Sink repair in Saighton without replacing anything

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about chips on the rim or front edge and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Signs you need sink repair in Saighton

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Crazing in the glaze

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
