FAQs for Claybrooke Parva

Do you disconnect the taps?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

What areas do you cover?

All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

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

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Claybrooke Parva, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Don’t overtighten taps

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Claybrooke Parva. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
