Frocester questions

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you cover Frocester?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Frocester from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you are in Frocester and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
