Sink repair at your home in Wood Seats

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Whether it’s crazing in the glaze and chips on a built-in basin, we can usually put it right, on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Preparing for the visit

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire basin

Most customers in Wood Seats get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Do you need sink repair in Wood Seats?

Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Crazing in the glaze
