Didmarton questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Didmarton. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you are in Didmarton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry

Repairs by material
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.
When to call us in Didmarton
Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Customers normally contact us about:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crack near the taps
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
For anyone letting property in or around Didmarton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
