About our sink repair in Panborough

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Common call-outs are for knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin, across Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Chipped basin edge, before and after repair

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Panborough

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
