Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Hyde Park Estate

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

Should you replace it?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Hyde Park Estate

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business

See our pricing.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
