Sink repair near Woodford Halse

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Sink repair at your home in Woodford Halse

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped toiletries and a crazed, tired basin.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Materials we repair

  • Antique & period basins

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit 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.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 often lifts.

Your questions about sink repair in Woodford Halse

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

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

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your NN11 postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
