FAQs for New Passage

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across South Gloucestershire.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Sink repair in New Passage, done in place

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you’re dealing with knocks from hair straighteners and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can help, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need sink repair in New Passage?

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for New Passage. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for New Passage. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
