Trusted sink repair in Windy Harbour

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently 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.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Windy Harbour. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
