Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

FAQs for Horseway

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Do you work in Horseway?

We do. Technicians travel to Horseway from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

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 you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid abrasive pads

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.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repairing versus replacing in Horseway

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, then guarantee it for a year.
