What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Do you need sink repair in Oldeamere?

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips around the rim

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

Repair or replace: which is better?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the entire UK

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Oldeamere

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Oldeamere. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Oldeamere. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
