What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What affects the price in Best Beech Hill

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

FAQs for Best Beech Hill

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.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Generally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

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

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
