About our sink repair in St Elvis

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or front edge and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in St Elvis

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for St Elvis. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for St Elvis. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in St Elvis get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

St Elvis questions

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When to call us in St Elvis

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you 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 we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
