Need sink repair in Sandhills?

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Sink repair in Sandhills without replacing anything

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, whatever they’re made of. There’s no plumbing to disconnect. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and a period basin that needs restoring.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Sandhills: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you restore period basins?

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

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I have to be there?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Take a look at our pricing.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

When to call us in Sandhills

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A crack near the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Sandhills

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Sandhills, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
