Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What affects the price in Cambus

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire basin

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Cambus

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

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Cambus

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
