How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

How we handle sink repair in Compton

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about fine cracks across the glaze and chips on a built-in basin.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Compton

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What affects the price in Compton

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need sink repair in Compton?

Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

What to look for in a quote
