Sink repair near Saltmarshe

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

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

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
