About our sink repair in Wem
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips around the rim and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Repairing versus replacing in Wem

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wem. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What affects the price in Wem
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Wem. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole basin
If you’re in Wem and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

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.
