Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Portgordon

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Moray.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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

The process

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. 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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

What affects the price in Portgordon

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
