How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

Repair or replace in Grassthorpe?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

FAQs for Grassthorpe

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Grassthorpe and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you work in Grassthorpe?

We do. Technicians travel to Grassthorpe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Grassthorpe. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Grassthorpe use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Grassthorpe

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A chipped basin edge

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure
