Trusted sink repair in Stoke Gifford

Sink repair in Stoke Gifford without replacing anything

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are crazing in the glaze and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Stoke Gifford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Common problems we fix in Stoke Gifford

Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A crack near the taps
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips on a built-in basin

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Stoke Gifford

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
