Sink repair in Stanton-on-the-Wolds, done in place

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about a crack near the taps and an antique basin with chips.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Stanton-on-the-Wolds, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Do you need sink repair in Stanton-on-the-Wolds?

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips on a built-in basin

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repairing versus replacing in Stanton-on-the-Wolds

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Stanton-on-the-Wolds. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Questions from Stanton-on-the-Wolds

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?

All of Nottinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
