Sink repair in Slade Heath without replacing anything

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and knocks from hair straighteners.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Slade Heath: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Slade Heath?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

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

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your WV10 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Slade Heath

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
