About our sink repair in Tattingstone White Horse

We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and cracks around the tap holes or waste.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
