Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Comberton

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

Do you need sink repair in Comberton?

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Crazing in the glaze

Before booking anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

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.

Period and antique

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

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
