Sink repair in Sundorne, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

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

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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we are called out for in Sundorne

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • An antique basin with chips

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
