Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
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 to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Charsfield, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
When to call us in Charsfield

What affects the price in Charsfield
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Charsfield: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover Charsfield?
We do. We send a technician to Charsfield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a chipped basin repairable?

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
