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, and the colour is mixed to suit.

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.

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  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

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Your questions about sink repair in Wheelock

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Do you work in Wheelock?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Wheelock and the rest of Cheshire East. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Wheelock?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CW11 postcode.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Wheelock

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wheelock. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
