When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  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 the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

What affects the price in Bampton

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Bampton?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
