Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

About our sink repair in Ranton Green

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. If you’re dealing with crazing in the glaze and a chipped vanity basin, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Ranton Green

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Ranton Green

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Read our pricing.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the area is dry
