Questions from Tyning

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Tyning

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
