DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

About our sink repair in Turnford

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you are dealing with fine cracks across the glaze and chips around the rim, we can normally put it right, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Should you replace it?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Turnford: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How much does sink repair cost in Turnford?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Plumbing leaks

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

What we work on

  • Enamelled basins
