FAQs for Chilton
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Work for landlords and builders

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by preparing the damage.
- We fill chips and rebuild edges.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- We match the colour to the glaze or door.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Repair or replace: which is better?

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
