Braehead and Broomridge: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Treat the basin 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 and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
What we’re called out for in Braehead and Broomridge
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- An antique basin with chips
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
