How we handle sink repair in Grimston

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on a built-in basin and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

Colour-matched on site
Rooms protected and left tidy
Nothing taken out or refitted
Most jobs done in one visit

Read our pricing.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Avoid abrasive pads
Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use mild cleaners only

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
