What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

FAQs for Waen

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

How do I book?

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

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 call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Waen

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Waen. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
