About our sink repair in Sandtoft

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you are dealing with an original basin worth saving and crazing in the glaze, we can help, on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Sandtoft and across Doncaster.

Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

When to call us in Sandtoft

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge
  • An antique basin with chips

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Sandtoft

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Sandtoft questions

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will there be a smell?

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

Do you cover Sandtoft?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Sandtoft. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Doncaster, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Hospitality businesses cannot 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.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Get chips repaired early

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 will not last.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

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