When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Sink repair in West End without replacing anything

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix cracks starting at the waste and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, across Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Questions from West End

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, West End included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you work in West End?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to West End. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
