10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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 clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lawley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Lawley questions

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you work in Lawley?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Lawley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lawley

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Lawley, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
