Wheelock Heath: your questions answered
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you come to Wheelock Heath?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wheelock Heath. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wheelock Heath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Common problems we fix in Wheelock Heath
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A crack near the taps
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A chipped vanity basin
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
The process
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 couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Wheelock Heath

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. 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 and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
