Sink repair for The Leigh homes

How we handle sink repair in The Leigh

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are a period basin that needs restoring and a chipped basin edge.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, 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.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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.

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in The Leigh

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about sink repair in The Leigh

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How much does sink repair cost in The Leigh?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from pictures so you don’t 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.
