High Lane: your questions answered

Is my repair covered?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes High Lane. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

How do I book?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Sink repair in High Lane, done in place

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Common call-outs are for a chipped vanity basin and crazing in the glaze, in antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What we are called out for in High Lane

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in High Lane

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in High Lane as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including High Lane. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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