Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

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.

About our sink repair in Sutton upon Tern

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with damage to a basin in a vanity unit and fine cracks across the glaze, we can generally put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sutton upon Tern as everywhere else we work.

Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Signs you need sink repair in Sutton upon Tern

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Chips around the rim

FAQs for Sutton upon Tern

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do the materials smell?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • 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.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Sutton upon Tern. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
