Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
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.
Sink repair in Sandwick, done in place
From cloakroom basins to period pieces, in ceramic, composite and enamel. There is no plumbing to disconnect. If you are dealing with cracks starting at the waste and an antique basin with chips, we can help, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Sandwick: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work in Sandwick?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Sandwick from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Repairing versus replacing in Sandwick
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
