Sink repair at your home in St Neots

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 Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks around the tap holes or waste and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use gentle cleaners

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Should you replace it?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to St Neots. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Signs you need sink repair in St Neots

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips on the rim or front edge

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day
