Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Sink repair in North Cerney without replacing anything

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Common call-outs are for an antique basin with chips and fine cracks across the glaze, in enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Landlord and trade work in North Cerney

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

If you manage property in North Cerney, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Clean with mild, non-abrasive 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 are called out for in North Cerney

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped basin edge

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

Questions from North Cerney

Is a chipped basin repairable?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in North Cerney.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
