Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Repair or replace: which is better?

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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 take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Wellhouse

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Wellhouse as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Signs you need sink repair in Lower Wellhouse

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An original basin worth saving

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
