Sink repair in Crudwell, done in place

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Whether it’s an antique basin with chips and fine cracks across the glaze, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Crudwell, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

When to call us in Crudwell

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips

What to look for in a quote

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use gentle cleaners

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

FAQs for Crudwell

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you come to Crudwell?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Crudwell and the rest of Wiltshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise 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.
