Common questions in Whitson

Do you restore period basins?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips. The room is left tidy.

  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. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Should you replace it?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
