Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Mitcheldean and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Widespread crazing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins

  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
