Sink repair near East Clandon

Sink repair in East Clandon without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s chips around the rim and chips from dropped toiletries, we can help, on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your GU4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

East Clandon: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
