Common questions in Chislehurst

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Do you cover Chislehurst?

We do. We send a technician to Chislehurst for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

What we’re called out for in Chislehurst

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • When it can be used again
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing

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

Materials we repair

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

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Chislehurst. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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 to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
