Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not overtighten taps
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
FAQs for Dinton
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work in Dinton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Dinton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Landlord and trade work in Dinton
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Dinton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What affects the price in Dinton

- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage

- How many items we do on one visit

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
