Sink repair near Stroat

Sink repair in Stroat, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We are frequently asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and an antique basin with chips, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

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

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stroat. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NP16 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 normally cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

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

Common problems we fix in Stroat

Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
