Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Shavington clients choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our pricing.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Landlord and trade work in Shavington

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Shavington

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks starting at the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What preparation is included

Your questions about sink repair in Shavington

Do you come to Shavington?

We do. We send a technician to Shavington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

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

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CW2 postcode.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Are there extra charges for Shavington?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What affects the price in Shavington

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you are in Shavington and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
