Sink repair near Barby

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

About our sink repair in Barby

We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We are often asked to fix crazing in the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, in vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Barby and across Warwickshire.

Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Barby: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do I have to be there?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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 tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the area is dry

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Barby

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
