Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use mild cleaners only

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repairing versus replacing in Garnsgate

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Garnsgate questions

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Generally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When to call us in Garnsgate

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A period basin that needs restoring

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

What sink repair costs

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
