Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Southwick, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

Your questions about sink repair in Southwick

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Materials we work on in Southwick

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

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