Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Sink repair in Kimcote without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about a crack near the taps and a crazed, tired basin.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
FAQs for Kimcote
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
Common problems we fix in Kimcote
