What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it. Somewhere like Marden's Hill needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the sink repair, so there is no second trip.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Repairs by material

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What we’re called out for in Marden's Hill

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A crack near the taps
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as St John's Church, period sanitaryware is worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
