Caersws questions

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Go 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 the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Common problems we fix in Caersws

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

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

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SY17 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Caersws

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Powys and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
