Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Advice

What affects the price in Pooley Street

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole basin

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Pooley Street, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Pooley Street

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

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A crack near the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
