About our sink repair in Woodseaves

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Typical jobs include chips on the rim or front edge and cracks around the tap holes or waste, in antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to compare quotes

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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.

What affects the price in Woodseaves

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Woodseaves. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
