Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How we handle sink repair in Lowlands

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, whatever they’re made of. Taps and wastes stay connected. Common call-outs are for crazing in the glaze and chips on a built-in basin, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

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

Materials we work on in Lowlands

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Why repair rather than replace?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Lowlands clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Landlord and trade work in Lowlands

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Questions from Lowlands

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you come to Lowlands?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Lowlands. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
