Before and after: an old basin refinished to bright white

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Repairing versus replacing in Raskelf

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

Do you need sink repair in Raskelf?

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

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped vanity basin

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. 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:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Through cracks that let water out

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Questions from Raskelf

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Normally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

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

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
