Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Little Musgrave. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Musgrave

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Musgrave use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Little Musgrave. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For a price in Little Musgrave, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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