Sink repair near Wardour

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. 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.

About our sink repair in Wardour

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and crazing in the glaze.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

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

Repairing versus replacing in Wardour

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
