About our sink repair in Shropham

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you are dealing with a crazed, tired basin and a period basin that needs restoring, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NR17 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Shropham. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Honest limits

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

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Shropham

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
