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. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Sink repair at your home in Filchampstead

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We are often asked to fix a chipped vanity basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste, across Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Get chips repaired early

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

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

What we are called out for in Filchampstead

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A crack near the taps
  • An original basin worth saving

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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