Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Popley

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Popley, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Common questions in Popley

Are there extra charges for Popley?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is it messy?

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

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Popley?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your RG24 postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Repair chips before they stain

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Common problems we fix in Popley

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Crazing in the glaze

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
