Sink repair at your home in Garden Village

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s a chipped basin edge and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can generally put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

What affects the price in Garden Village

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Garden Village. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Garden Village. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most customers in Garden Village get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Garden Village questions

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Garden Village?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you cover Garden Village?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Garden Village. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
