Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Dymock get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Common problems we fix in Dymock

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What preparation is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dymock

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
