Sink repair near Sparkford

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Landlord and trade work in Sparkford

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Sparkford. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
