About our sink repair in Wootton

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Typical jobs include crazing in the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Questions from Wootton

How much does sink repair cost in Wootton?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DN39 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Is my repair covered?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Wootton

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Any details about the material

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
