DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Kincorth

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Repairing versus replacing in Kincorth

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site

Take a look at our full price list.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Questions from Kincorth

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Can you repair several things at once?

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