What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

  • Plumbing leaks

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Your questions about sink repair in Lane End

Do you come to Lane End?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lane End for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Lane End?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HP14 postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you restore period basins?

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lane End

If you manage property in Lane End, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lane End as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china
