When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Questions from Clatterbridge

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

What do you need from me?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Are you accredited?

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

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wirral and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Clatterbridge, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
