Repairing versus replacing in Tollerford

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair 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.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Tollerford

The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Tollerford: your questions answered
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Tollerford included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is a repair better than a new one?
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.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Dorset.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Tollerford?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT2 postcode.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
