What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  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. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Common questions in Spexhall

How much does sink repair cost in Spexhall?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Generally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you come to Spexhall?

We do. We send a technician to Spexhall for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Spexhall. Prices don’t change with location.

How do I book?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Spexhall. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
