Sink repair for White Cross homes

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Sink repair in White Cross without replacing anything

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and cracks starting at the waste.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in White Cross, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
