FAQs for North Dell
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Repairing versus replacing in North Dell
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Dell
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Dell as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice

What affects the price in North Dell
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy 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, with colour mixed on site.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in North Dell

- Antique & period basins
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
