Sink repair for Sighthill homes

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Repairing versus replacing in Sighthill

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Sighthill. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sighthill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most clients in Sighthill get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually 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, a professional repair is worth it.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

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

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
