We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
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. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Do I need to be at home?

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Repair or replace in Bar Hill?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Common problems we fix in Bar Hill
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped basin edge
- Knocks from hair straighteners
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
