About our sink repair in Loddiswell

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and people most frequently call us about knocks from hair straighteners and chips on the rim or front edge.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Loddiswell and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repair or replace in Loddiswell?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
