Common problems we fix in Whiteleaf

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A crack near the taps
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Whiteleaf

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Whiteleaf?

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 work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

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

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
