Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Sink repair at your home in Warwick Bridge

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about cracks around the tap holes or waste and a crazed, tired basin.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Warwick Bridge

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Warwick Bridge.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

When to call us in Warwick Bridge

Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A crazed, tired basin

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How long it needs to cure

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
