Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ewhurst

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

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.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Common problems we fix in Ewhurst

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Common reasons people in Ewhurst contact us are:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Chips around the rim
  • Chips on a built-in basin

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Ewhurst: your questions answered

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ewhurst. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
