How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, 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.
What affects the price in Bevendean
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Bevendean. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Questions from Bevendean
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Common problems we fix in Bevendean
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An original basin worth saving
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
Before booking anyone
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
