Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Sink repair in Boreham without replacing anything

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Typical jobs include a period basin that needs restoring and crazing in the glaze, in enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. 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.

Why Boreham customers choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Do not overtighten taps

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What affects the price in Boreham

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Boreham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire basin

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Boreham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Questions from Boreham

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Boreham.
