How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Sink repair at your home in Newport

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about sink repair in Newport

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will you remove the sink?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Are there extra charges for Newport?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

What we’re called out for in Newport

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Comparing quotes

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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, then guarantee it for a year.
