How we handle sink repair in Grandpont

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. Typical jobs include cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips from dropped toiletries, in enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we’re called out for in Grandpont

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Chips around the rim
  • Crazing in the glaze

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Grandpont

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Grandpont: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are there extra charges for Grandpont?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
