DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Questions from Totmonslow

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover Totmonslow?

We do. Technicians travel to Totmonslow from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
