What affects the price in Meifod
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Meifod, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
The process
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 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. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Meifod
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Meifod questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
