How we handle sink repair in High Woolaston

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We are often asked to fix chips around the rim and crazing in the glaze, on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

What we are called out for in High Woolaston

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A crack near the taps
  • A chipped basin edge

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use mild cleaners only

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
