Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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.

Preston on Stour: your questions answered

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Preston on Stour

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When to call us in Preston on Stour

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.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An original basin worth saving
