What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Questions from Tullibody

Can you repair a chipped basin?

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

Do you come to Tullibody?

We do. We send a technician to Tullibody for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What affects the price in Tullibody

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most customers in Tullibody get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A fixed quote before you book

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
