FAQs for Clyst Heath
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Frequently. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
