About our sink repair in Box Trees

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or front edge and fine cracks across the glaze.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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

Do you need sink repair in Box Trees?

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your B94 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Landlord and trade work in Box Trees

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Box Trees

Will you remove the sink?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
