Sink repair in Marsh Lane, done in place

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and chips around the rim.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

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

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Widespread crazing

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

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

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  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. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Marsh Lane, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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

Common questions in Marsh Lane

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Repair or replace in Marsh Lane?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
