Your questions about sink repair in Navestock Side
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens next?

What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you repair a chipped basin?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you restore period basins?

Sink repair in Navestock Side, done in place
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We are often asked to fix chips from dropped toiletries and a period basin that needs restoring, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
