About our sink repair in Singlewell or Ifield

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Widespread crazing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common questions in Singlewell or Ifield

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you work in Singlewell or Ifield?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Singlewell or Ifield and the rest of Kent. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Getting a price from pictures

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Singlewell or Ifield

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
