What affects the price in Rowley Green

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Rowley Green

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Rowley Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
