How we handle sink repair in Highbrook

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are knocks from hair straighteners and fine cracks across the glaze.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Highbrook and across West Sussex.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Repair chips before they stain

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Highbrook

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
