Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Barton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Advice
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Do you need sink repair in Barton?
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An antique basin with chips
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Barton: your questions answered
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
