Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broadway Pound as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

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

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can

How we price sink repair

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Questions from Broadway Pound

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
