How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a couple of hours for most chips.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Wayford, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Wayford

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

  • A crack near the taps
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, 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 carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Your questions about sink repair in Wayford

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Wayford. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How much does sink repair cost in Wayford?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TA18 postcode.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

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 typically the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
