Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Questions from Earls Barton
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover the whole of Northamptonshire?
The whole UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
