DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Landlord and trade work in Little Washbourne

For anyone letting property in or around Little Washbourne, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Washbourne use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

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

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Little Washbourne: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Little Washbourne is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GL20 postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

Do you work in Little Washbourne?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Little Washbourne and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.
