Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Madley

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What affects the price in Madley

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Madley. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out

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