Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Lount questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
We polish the repair to blend it in.
The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.

How to prepare

Keep a parking space free if you can
Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Do not overtighten taps
Use a heat mat for hair tools
Store toiletries on a shelf

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

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