Westhill: your questions answered

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are there extra charges for Westhill?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Westhill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IV2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Repair or replace in Westhill?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Read our full price list.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

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

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
