Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Questions from Staynall

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Staynall and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
