Sink repair at your home in Shrewley

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What affects the price in Shrewley

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, 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

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

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

Landlord and trade work in Shrewley

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We leave the room as we found it

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Shrewley questions

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Frequently. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

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

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
