About our sink repair in Woodchester

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped toiletries and cracks around the tap holes or waste.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire.

Repairs by material

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.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry

Related advice

Should you replace it?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Woodchester. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

Your questions about sink repair in Woodchester

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What affects the price in Woodchester

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Woodchester. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
