Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Common problems we fix in Broom

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • A chipped basin edge
  • An antique basin with chips

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Common questions in Broom

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do the materials smell?

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

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Broom

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broom use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Broom. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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