Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • An antique basin with chips

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Sink repair at your home in Upper Saltonstall

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on a built-in basin and crazing in the glaze.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Upper Saltonstall as everywhere else we work.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Landlord and trade work in Upper Saltonstall

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Calderdale and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out

What we work on

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

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’re 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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
