Sink repair near Weston

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Sink repair in Weston without replacing anything

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you are dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can generally put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Weston

If you manage property in Weston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

  • A fixed quote before you book

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Weston

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

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

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What we are called out for in Weston

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Our hiring checklist

Weston: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Do you come to Weston?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Weston. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
