How we handle sink repair in Naseby

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and people most often call us about cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips on the rim or front edge.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Naseby

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we’re called out for in Naseby

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

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

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
