How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Common questions in Parnwell

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Do you need sink repair in Parnwell?

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • An antique basin with chips

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, 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. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Parnwell. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair
