Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repairing versus replacing in Aston

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Your questions about sink repair in Aston

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are there extra charges for Aston?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What sink repair costs

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
