How we handle sink repair in East Marsh

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Typical jobs include damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and crazing in the glaze, across enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

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

Repairing versus replacing in East Marsh

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Same prices wherever you are

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  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. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Choosing a repair company

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, and the colour is mixed to suit.
