Trusted sink repair in Edithmead

Sink repair in Edithmead, done in place

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are an antique basin with chips and a chipped basin edge.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

Landlord and trade work in Edithmead

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

When to call us in Edithmead

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

What we work on

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

Questions from Edithmead

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Edithmead and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Are there extra charges for Edithmead?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Repair chips before they stain

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
