Sink repair near Westbury

Sink repair in Westbury, done in place

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about chips on a built-in basin and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

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

What we work on

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

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

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

What affects the price in Westbury

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Westbury. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Westbury. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Westbury

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
