Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about an original basin worth saving and cracks starting at the waste.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Common questions in Lower Weare

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Often. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

If you manage property in Lower Weare, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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 normally cheaper.

What affects the price in Lower Weare

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. 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.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  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 typically be used later that day or the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Lower Weare, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Lower Weare customers choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the whole UK

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
