Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

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

Repair or replace in Boughton Monchelsea?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. 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.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Boughton Monchelsea. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ME17 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
