Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Get chips repaired early

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

When to call us in Catsgore

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Common reasons people in Catsgore contact us are:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A crack near the taps
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace in Catsgore?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

Landlord and trade work in Catsgore

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
