The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Signs you need sink repair in Branston

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Aftercare tips

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

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Repairs by material

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

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
