About our sink repair in Woonton

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. We regularly repair enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are an original basin worth saving and cracks starting at the waste.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use mild cleaners only

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Common problems we fix in Woonton

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A crack near the taps

10 questions to ask before booking

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Questions from Woonton

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Woonton and the rest of Herefordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Woonton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
