Sink repair in Bathwick without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about an antique basin with chips and chips on a built-in basin.
Around Bathwick, most of the basins we repair are in family bathrooms and cloakrooms. A chip is usually a short visit.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Around Bathwick, arranging several trades for a replacement can take a while. A repair needs just one visit.
Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Questions from Bathwick
Can you repair basins at a school or business in Bathwick?
Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. We’ll agree timings that suit the building.
Can you restore the original basins in an older house in Bathwick?
In most cases: original pieces are frequently better made and harder to replace. We’ll give you an honest view from photos.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
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.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
