When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Twyford
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
FAQs for Twyford
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
We cover the whole UK, including Twyford and the rest of Leicestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you come to Twyford?
We do. We send a technician to Twyford for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
