Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Through cracks that let water out

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Ebbw Vale South

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Blaenau Gwent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
