Sink repair in Tetchill without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips around the rim, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled 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.

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Tetchill: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Tetchill included. Travel is included in the price.

How much does sink repair cost in Tetchill?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

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 we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Through cracks that let water out

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tetchill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

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