Advice
How we handle sink repair in Newtown
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include a crack near the taps and a crazed, tired basin, across enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
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.
