Trusted sink repair in Sway

Sink repair at your home in Sway

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and people most often call us about chips around the rim and an original basin worth saving.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Common problems we fix in Sway

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Repair or replace: which is better?

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Common questions in Sway

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How much does sink repair cost in Sway?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?

The whole UK, including all of Hampshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

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

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What affects the price in Sway

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Sway. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.
