About our sink repair in Croyde

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. Typical jobs include cracks around the tap holes or waste and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Croyde, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Croyde questions

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Repair or replace in Croyde?

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Take a look at our pricing.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
