Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When to call us in Lower Cumberworth

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A crack near the taps

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Lower Cumberworth

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
