Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use mild cleaners only

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What affects the price in Longwell Green

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

When to call us in Longwell Green

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips on the rim or front edge

Before you book anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
