DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Questions from Rowanfield

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Do not overtighten taps

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.

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Repair or replace: which is better?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rowanfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
