How we handle sink repair in Sidemoor

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Common call-outs are for an original basin worth saving and cracks around the tap holes or waste, in enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy 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. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
