What affects the price in Bardwell
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Bardwell. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
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.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole basin
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Bardwell: your questions answered
Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Do you come to Bardwell?

Is the work guaranteed?

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

How much does sink repair cost in Bardwell?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What else we do in Bardwell
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
