Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Common questions in Clifford

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How much does sink repair cost in Clifford?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Clifford is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • 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 hair tools off the rim.

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

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Clifford

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Signs you need sink repair in Clifford

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

The things customers usually mention when they call are:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • An original basin worth saving

Comparing quotes

  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts
