Repairs by material

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.

Composite and resin

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Long Sutton. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

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

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

FAQs for Long Sutton

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.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
