Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Nether Headon

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Nether Headon questions

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work in Nether Headon?

We do. We send a technician to Nether Headon for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Repairing versus replacing in Nether Headon

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Nether Headon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
