Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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 will not last.

About our sink repair in Newton Bromswold

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and knocks from hair straighteners.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Newton Bromswold

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Newton Bromswold. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

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.
