Common problems we fix in Parkgate
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- An antique basin with chips
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Other services in Parkgate
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Parkgate. The price comes down to:

- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
