Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Cumberworth

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips
  • A chipped basin edge

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  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 the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
