Common questions in Low Moresby

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A chipped vanity basin

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work 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. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repairing versus replacing in Low Moresby

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are
