DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Questions from Weston
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Are there extra charges for Weston?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
