Sink repair near St George’s

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

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

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for St George’s. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St George’s as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Common questions in St George’s

Do you restore period basins?

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

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How much does sink repair cost in St George’s?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

When to call us in St George’s

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A crack near the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

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

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

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

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.
