Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, 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 and leave the character intact.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
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.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Crawford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
