Repairs by material

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business

FAQs for Brayford

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How much does sink repair cost in Brayford?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will you remove the sink?

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

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Brayford

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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