Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

Repair or replace in Orston?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Orston

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Orston questions

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job.

What we are called out for in Orston

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • A crack near the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched
