Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Get chips repaired early

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Garth

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Garth questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CF34 postcode.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Common problems we fix in Garth

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Cracks starting at the waste

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Plumbing leaks

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

What we work on

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

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
