What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What affects the price in Bradpole

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Common questions in Bradpole

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do you cover Bradpole?

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

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Bradpole

Letting agents often send us pictures 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.

If you manage property in Bradpole, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
