Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on 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.

How we handle sink repair in Dadford

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with a crack near the taps and crazing in the glaze, we can help, on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

When to call us in Dadford

Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped basin edge

Our hiring checklist

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Dadford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

What sink repair costs

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

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Dadford, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Dadford

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
