Wapley: your questions answered
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
About our sink repair in Wapley
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about knocks from hair straighteners and a chipped vanity basin.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repair or replace in Wapley?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A crack near the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price covers travel
- What aftercare is recommended
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Wapley. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- 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.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
