What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

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

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

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 typically cheaper.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Siddington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Repair chips before they stain

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Questions from Siddington

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

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

Do you cover Siddington?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Siddington. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

When to call us in Siddington

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Chips around the rim
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again
