Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hoar Cross. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
