Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Common questions in Nanstallon

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Nanstallon

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Nanstallon. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Signs you need sink repair in Nanstallon

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Before booking anyone

  • How to care for the finish
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Through cracks that let water out

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

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Nanstallon

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.
