Common questions in Rosewarne

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you come to Rosewarne?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Rosewarne for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can I fix it myself?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Should you replace it?

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Common problems we fix in Rosewarne

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • An antique basin with chips

How to compare quotes

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit 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.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
