What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What we’re called out for in Meikle Wartle
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Common reasons people in Meikle Wartle contact us are:
- Crazing in the glaze
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Knocks from hair straighteners
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Repairing versus replacing in Meikle Wartle
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Meikle Wartle clients choose us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- No need to remove anything
- Most jobs done in one visit

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
