How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

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

Your questions about sink repair in Little Ponton

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Little Ponton?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
