About our sink repair in West End

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the rim or front edge and a chipped vanity basin.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

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

What we work on

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

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Your questions about sink repair in West End

Are there extra charges for West End?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will you leave a mess?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so West End is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I get a price for sink repair in West End?

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

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Caerphilly.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in West End

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Repairing versus replacing in West End

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for West End. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

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