Sink repair near Willsbridge

Repairs by material

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. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Sink repair in Willsbridge, done in place

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on a built-in basin and fine cracks across the glaze.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

FAQs for Willsbridge

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Signs you need sink repair in Willsbridge

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An original basin worth saving

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
