About our sink repair in Willington

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s chips on a built-in basin and a crack near the taps, we can normally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Willington

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 repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Willington questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Are there extra charges for Willington?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you cover the whole of Bedford Borough?

Across the UK, and that includes Willington. Prices don’t change with location.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Natural light rather than flash

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Most customers in Willington get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

What we’re called out for in Willington

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Crazing in the glaze

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • Who will actually do the work
