Repairing versus replacing in Radford
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Radford: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Radford. Prices don’t change with location.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Do you need sink repair in Radford?
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips around the rim
- An original basin worth saving
- A chipped vanity basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
Comparing quotes
- How soon you can use it again
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What protection goes down before work starts
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
