Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down 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 remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

FAQs for Grimpo

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover Grimpo?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Grimpo use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Grimpo, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Grimpo

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Grimpo. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Do you need sink repair in Grimpo?

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips around the rim
  • A chipped vanity basin

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
