Sink repair in Spurstow

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

Sink repair in Spurstow, done in place

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. We work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about a chipped basin edge and cracks starting at the waste.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Spurstow

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Spurstow as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairing versus replacing in Spurstow

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why Spurstow clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it

Spurstow questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover the whole of Cheshire West and Chester?

We cover the whole UK, including Spurstow and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

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

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Spurstow

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