What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

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

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

How we handle sink repair in Ewell

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about damage to a basin in a vanity unit and chips from dropped toiletries.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ewell. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Common questions in Ewell

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your KT19 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Widespread crazing

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

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
