About our sink repair in Whitehill

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on a built-in basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste, on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to care for the repair

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

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Questions from Whitehill

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Repairing versus replacing in Whitehill

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
