Sink repair in Whissonsett without replacing anything

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We are frequently asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Whissonsett

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. 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.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  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. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repair or replace in Whissonsett?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
