What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

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

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Roxton

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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 pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Questions from Roxton

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Bedford Borough.

How soon can you come?

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

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Roxton. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Roxton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
