Sink repair near Stockbury

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we handle sink repair in Stockbury

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are crazing in the glaze and chips around the rim.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Stockbury as everywhere else we work.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Repair chips before they stain

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Stockbury

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
