Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Much Dewchurch questions

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Much Dewchurch use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Much Dewchurch

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

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.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
