Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Low Catton. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Low Catton

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
