How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Sink repair in Churchdown, done in place

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped toiletries and cracks around the tap holes or waste.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Churchdown?

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

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

Landlord and trade work in Churchdown

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Churchdown use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Plumbing leaks

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

Surfaces we repair

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