Questions from Credenhill

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you cover the entire of Herefordshire?

All of Herefordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Herefordshire.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Do you work in Credenhill?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Credenhill and the rest of Herefordshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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 mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in Credenhill get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your basin is made of matters

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.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
