About our sink repair in Tong

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We’re often asked to fix knocks from hair straighteners and a crazed, tired basin, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repair or replace in Tong?

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. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material

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.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Do you need sink repair in Tong?

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips around the rim

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

  • How to look after the finish
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Questions from Tong

Can you quote from photos?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you work in Tong?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Tong. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

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

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What happens next?

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

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
