Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we’re called out for in Coleford Water

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Questions to ask before you book

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to care for the finish
  • How the colour is matched

What affects the price in Coleford Water

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Coleford Water

Repairing versus replacing in Coleford Water

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Coleford Water

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do you come to Coleford Water?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Coleford Water and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Coleford Water and the rest of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
