How to care for the repair

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

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace in Foxholes?

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Everything repaired in place

Take a look at our prices page.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Foxholes

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around Foxholes, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
