What affects the price in Blackheath

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Blackheath, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackheath

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What we are called out for in Blackheath

Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crack near the taps

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Advice

Blackheath questions

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Surrey. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do you work in Blackheath?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Blackheath for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
