Questions from Epperstone
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Normally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Sink repair at your home in Epperstone
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or front edge and cracks starting at the waste.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Epperstone, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
The process

- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
