Book sink repair in Burwash Weald

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Sink repair in Burwash Weald, done in place

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We’re frequently asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

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

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
