Common questions in Royal Wootton Bassett

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the basin and check 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. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins

Repairing versus replacing in Royal Wootton Bassett

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Royal Wootton Bassett. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Swindon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Royal Wootton Bassett

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
