Sink repair for Further Quarter homes

Sink repair in Further Quarter, done in place

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are fine cracks across the glaze and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

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

Further Quarter questions

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How do I book?

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can you repair an antique basin?

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. 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.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

When to call us in Further Quarter

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • An antique basin with chips

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
