Creeting Bottoms: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Creeting Bottoms and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid abrasive pads
Clean with mild, non-abrasive 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.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
When to call us in Creeting Bottoms
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Crazing in the glaze
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to care for the finish
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
