Damems: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Are you accredited?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

How we handle sink repair in Damems

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are fine cracks across the glaze and a period basin that needs restoring.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bradford.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Damems. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Common problems we fix in Damems

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

The things customers usually mention when they call are:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Comparing quotes

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
