Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

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

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Theddingworth

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Do you need sink repair in Theddingworth?

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge
