Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Coalhall

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

What affects the price in Coalhall

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
