What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Honiley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around Honiley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can

Signs you need sink repair in Honiley

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A crazed, tired basin

What your quote should include

  • How to care for the finish
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Common questions in Honiley

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Warwickshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
