Sink repair in Walstead, done in place
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a period basin that needs restoring and a crack near the taps.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Repairing versus replacing in Walstead
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
