DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
