What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What sink repair costs

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

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Ashfield

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

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place

Your questions about sink repair in Ashfield

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you come to Ashfield?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
