Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • 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.

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

Sink repair in West Town, done in place

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about chips on the rim or front edge and an antique basin with chips.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Why repair rather than replace?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

West Town: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, West Town included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

How do I get a price for sink repair in West Town?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SA3 postcode.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What affects the price in West Town

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including West Town. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in West Town, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Town use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

What we’re called out for in West Town

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A crack near the taps
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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