Trusted sink repair in Wiggins Hill

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Sink repair in Wiggins Hill without replacing anything

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are a crack near the taps and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Get chips repaired early

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

When to call us in Wiggins Hill

Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped basin edge

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Wiggins Hill questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you disconnect the taps?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
