Sink repair in Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

About our sink repair in Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. If you are dealing with an antique basin with chips and a crazed, tired basin, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

  • The material and finish

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. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
