Sink repair for West Langton homes

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use mild cleaners only

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

West Langton questions

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

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.

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for West Langton. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in West Langton, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
