Corley: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

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

Landlord and trade work in Corley

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Corley as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Corley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

What affects the price in Corley

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Widespread crazing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price
