Sink repair near West Green

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

About our sink repair in West Green

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with a crack near the taps and chips on a built-in basin, we can usually put it right, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

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 can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

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.

Should you replace it?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
