How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Should you replace it?

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

What we’re called out for in Womenswold

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A crack near the taps
  • A crazed, tired basin

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
