  • Chips around the rim

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Salendine Nook?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour-matched on site

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

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.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing 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 normally use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
