Sink repair near Thorpe on the Hill

Sink repair in Thorpe on the Hill without replacing anything

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Common call-outs are for a crack near the taps and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Thorpe on the Hill questions

Do you work in Thorpe on the Hill?

We do. We send a technician to Thorpe on the Hill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

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

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

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

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.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

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

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thorpe on the Hill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
