About our sink repair in Trysull

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We are often asked to fix an original basin worth saving and cracks around the tap holes or waste, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

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, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Choosing a repair company

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out

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

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common questions in Trysull

Which areas do you work in?

All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Trysull. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
