DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Common problems we fix in Hateley Heath
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
Look out for these signs:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped vanity basin
- Fine cracks across the glaze
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
Questions from Hateley Heath
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you work in Hateley Heath?
We do. Technicians travel to Hateley Heath from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you cover the whole of Sandwell?
Across the UK, and that includes Hateley Heath. Prices do not change with location.

Advice
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hateley Heath. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Hateley Heath, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Repair or replace in Hateley Heath?

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
