We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about chips on the rim or front edge and an antique basin with chips.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid abrasive pads

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Your questions about sink repair in Warden

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you cover Warden?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Warden from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
