What else we do in Dial Post
Dial Post: your questions answered
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover Dial Post?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Dial Post. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Dial Post
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not overtighten taps
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
