What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Common questions in Westdean

Do you come out to small places like Westdean?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

I let a flat near Seaford station. Can you help between tenants?

Yes, landlords and agents book us regularly.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover Westdean?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Westdean. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Westdean

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westdean use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Plumbing leaks

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most clients in Westdean get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When to call us in Westdean

Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

Common reasons people in Westdean contact us are:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as Ladycross School, toilets and washrooms can be repaired in place too.

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again. Somewhere as small as Westdean, access is usually the main thing to plan. Once we are there, the sink repair works exactly as anywhere else.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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

Should you replace it?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. In an older home in a village like Westdean, replacing a basin can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.

Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
