About our sink repair in Crossway

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about an original basin worth saving and chips on the rim or front edge.

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

What affects the price in Crossway

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Crossway. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Crossway. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Crossway

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Your questions about sink repair in Crossway

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Powys and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
