Trusted sink repair in Stourscombe

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the entire UK

Sink repair in Stourscombe without replacing anything

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Whether it’s a crazed, tired basin and a crack near the taps, we can typically put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Questions from Stourscombe

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What information do you need?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do you restore period basins?

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

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

If you manage property in Stourscombe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
