About our sink repair in Tuppenhurst

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are crazing in the glaze and a chipped vanity basin.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use mild cleaners only

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

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.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

FAQs for Tuppenhurst

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I book?

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

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Should you replace it?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Tuppenhurst

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WS15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
