Sink repair near Upton

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing 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. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Upton

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Questions from Upton

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you come to Upton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Upton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you need sink repair in Upton?

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A chipped vanity basin

Before booking anyone

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Upton clients choose us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use mild cleaners only

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
