How we handle sink repair in St Mary in the Marsh

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. We are frequently asked to fix a chipped vanity basin and a crazed, tired basin, on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

What affects the price in St Mary in the Marsh

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in St Mary in the Marsh, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Landlord and trade work in St Mary in the Marsh

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in St Mary in the Marsh

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A period basin that needs restoring

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
