When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are knocks from hair straighteners and a chipped basin edge.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Huggate

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Often. Send us photos and we will tell you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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

Landlord and trade work in Huggate

If you manage property in Huggate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

See our prices page.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Huggate. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
