Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Sink repair at your home in Swattenden

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. Common call-outs are for cracks around the tap holes or waste and fine cracks across the glaze, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins

What sink repair costs

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Swattenden. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

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

Repair or replace in Swattenden?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
