How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Your questions about sink repair in Farndon

Can you repair a cracked basin?

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

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Do you need sink repair in Farndon?

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses 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.

For anyone letting property in or around Farndon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
