Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Materials we work on in Lower Halsway

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Halsway

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.

  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. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Lower Halsway questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Lower Halsway?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
