Sink repair near Welton

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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 mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Sink repair in Welton without replacing anything

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s chips around the rim and a crack near the taps, we can help, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Welton

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Welton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs

Welton questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Are you accredited?

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

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Are there extra charges for Welton?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work in Welton?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Welton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

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

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Welton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
