FAQs for Admaston

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will you remove the sink?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Telford and Wrekin. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

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 keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Admaston customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Read our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Honest limits

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

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

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