Sink repair in Wattston, done in place

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Whether it’s a crack near the taps and crazing in the glaze, we can typically put it right, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Wattston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Avoid abrasive pads

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Wattston. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

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