The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Meopham

For anyone letting property in or around Meopham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

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

What affects the price in Meopham

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Meopham. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DA13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
