Sink repair in Six Hills, done in place

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips around the rim.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Six Hills

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Six Hills

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Common reasons people in Six Hills contact us are:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What sink repair costs

  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Six Hills

How much does sink repair cost in Six Hills?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do you cover Six Hills?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Six Hills for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out

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