Trusted sink repair in The Wrythe

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

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

Sink repair in The Wrythe without replacing anything

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. We work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are crazing in the glaze and a chipped basin edge.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What affects the price in The Wrythe

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to The Wrythe. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Wrythe

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repair or replace in The Wrythe?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for The Wrythe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common questions in The Wrythe

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
