Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Advice

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Get chips repaired early

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Coombe

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Questions from Coombe

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Coombe. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
