How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is the work guaranteed?

What a repair can’t fix

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
