How we handle sink repair in Yew Tree

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are a period basin that needs restoring and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Questions from Yew Tree

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you cover the whole of Walsall?

Across the UK, and that includes Yew Tree. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What we’re called out for in Yew Tree

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • An original basin worth saving

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • How changes to the job are handled

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Yew Tree, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Yew Tree. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
