Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What we are called out for in Drayton

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

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

  • A crack near the taps
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to look after the finish
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

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

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Drayton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Read our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Drayton

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you cover the whole of Somerset?

We cover the entire UK, including Drayton and the rest of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
