How we handle sink repair in Bathampton

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We’re often asked to fix crazing in the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners, on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Bathampton

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Bathampton. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Common questions in Bathampton

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

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

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you come to Bathampton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Bathampton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Repairing versus replacing in Bathampton

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
