It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Common call-outs are for crazing in the glaze and cracks around the tap holes or waste, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

If you are in Heath End and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Your questions about sink repair in Heath End

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When to call us in Heath End

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors 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:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A chipped vanity basin

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Same prices wherever you are

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 take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
