Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour-matched on site

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Chorleywood West questions

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
