When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you’re dealing with a crazed, tired basin and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use mild cleaners only

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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

Your questions about sink repair in Bodden

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bodden.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

How do I get a price for sink repair in Bodden?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BA4 postcode.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Normally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before you book

What affects the price in Bodden

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Bodden. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
