Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

Do you need sink repair in Mark Cross?

Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • An original basin worth saving

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to look after the finish

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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.

Why Mark Cross customers choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Mark Cross, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
