Tamerton Foliot questions
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Tamerton Foliot included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Are there extra charges for Tamerton Foliot?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What else we do in Tamerton Foliot
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Tamerton Foliot. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tamerton Foliot. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
