Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Llanfihangel Tal-y-llyn, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
