Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

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

About our sink repair in Carew

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for a period basin that needs restoring and a crazed, tired basin, across Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Get chips repaired early

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What affects the price in Carew

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Carew. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Carew. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SA70 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When to call us in Carew

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Carew questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Carew?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are there extra charges for Carew?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
