Sink repair in Sallys

Sink repair at your home in Sallys

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. If you’re dealing with a period basin that needs restoring and a chipped basin edge, we can generally put it right, on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t overtighten taps

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What we are called out for in Sallys

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A chipped basin edge

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Sallys

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Sallys. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

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

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

You don’t 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.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Sallys, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Landlord and trade work in Sallys

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
