When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Sink repair in Baswich without replacing anything

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and people most frequently call us about fine cracks across the glaze and chips around the rim.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Baswich: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How much does sink repair cost in Baswich?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Will it make a mess?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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 will not last.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
