Trusted sink repair in Woodhouses

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Sink repair in Woodhouses, done in place

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are an original basin worth saving and cracks starting at the waste.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Woodhouses: your questions answered

Can you repair an antique basin?

What areas do you cover?

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What affects the price in Woodhouses

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you need sink repair in Woodhouses?

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An original basin worth saving

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add 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.
