Sink repair in Barrasford

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

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

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
