Sink repair in Underling Green

How we handle sink repair in Underling Green

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s a crack near the taps and a period basin that needs restoring, we can usually put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TN12 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What we are called out for in Underling Green

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about sink repair in Underling Green

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

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

Do you cover Underling Green?

We do. We send a technician to Underling Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Typically, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
