Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

About our sink repair in East End Green

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are knocks from hair straighteners and a chipped basin edge.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in East End Green

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do you work in East End Green?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to East End Green for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What sink repair costs

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for East End Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

For landlords and businesses

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
