Common questions in Flagg

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Flagg. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Work for landlords and builders

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

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

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.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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 do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

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

When to call us in Flagg

Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips around the rim
  • Crazing in the glaze

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
