DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairing versus replacing in Grimsbury
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
