Sink repair for Westhall homes

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Sink repair in Westhall without replacing anything

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 enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are an antique basin with chips and knocks from hair straighteners.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Our hiring checklist

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Repair chips before they stain

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

FAQs for Westhall

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Westhall. The price depends on:

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
