Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Ceramic basin repaired, before and after

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Plumbing leaks

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

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

When to call us in Westcroft

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

  • Who turns up on the day

Common questions in Westcroft

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is the work guaranteed?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What affects the price in Westcroft

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price
