Ceramic basin repaired, before and after

Signs you need sink repair in Shedfield

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Crazing in the glaze

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

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

Your questions about sink repair in Shedfield

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

How we price sink repair

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in Shedfield get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
