FAQs for Westowe
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Sink repair at your home in Westowe
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about fine cracks across the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Do you need sink repair in Westowe?
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Westowe
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
