Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
Most clients in Rockcliffe get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rockcliffe use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Plumbing leaks
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
