Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Cosgrove questions

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Repairing versus replacing in Cosgrove

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our prices page.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

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 finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

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

Landlord and trade work in Cosgrove

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cosgrove use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Do you need sink repair in Cosgrove?

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cosgrove. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
