DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tillington

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tillington. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

For a price in Tillington, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
