What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Repairing versus replacing in Scadabhagh

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place

See our pricing.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Scadabhagh

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Scadabhagh: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

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?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Common problems we fix in Scadabhagh

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Common reasons people in Scadabhagh contact us are:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • An original basin worth saving
