Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

Do you need sink repair in Upper Bangor?

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips around the rim

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

What we work on

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

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Upper Bangor. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back

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’ll reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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 colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
