How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  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

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Sink repair at your home in Radwell

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about knocks from hair straighteners and a crack near the taps.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our prices page.

When to call us in Radwell

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

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • An antique basin with chips

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Your questions about sink repair in Radwell

Do you come to Radwell?

We do. We send a technician to Radwell for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Usually, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

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