What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it. In Brondesbury, we’re used to flats, stairs and tight hallways. We bring compact kit, and the room is protected before work begins.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space clear if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. For a flat in Brondesbury, replacement can also disturb neighbours below and need the building manager’s say-so. Repairing is much less disruptive.

Our sink repair starts from £95. 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.

Do you need sink repair in Brondesbury?

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips around the rim
  • An antique basin with chips
  • A chipped vanity basin

We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as North West London Jewish Day School, toilets and washrooms can be repaired in place too.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

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

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.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
