Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Newbold questions
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole basin
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Signs you need sink repair in Newbold
Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Common reasons people in Newbold contact us are:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Crazing in the glaze
- An antique basin with chips
What your quote should include
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
- If travel is included in the price
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
