Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Common questions in Market Overton

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Market Overton is covered. Prices do not change with location.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Landlord and trade work in Market Overton

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

If you manage property in Market Overton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
