How we handle sink repair in Sutton

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped vanity basin and fine cracks across the glaze.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we can’t put right

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

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Sutton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

FAQs for Sutton

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Do you come to Sutton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Sutton and the rest of Greater London. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Are there extra charges for Sutton?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

When to call us in Sutton

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
