Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

When to call us in Woodall

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A chipped vanity basin

Before booking anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Woodall, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

FAQs for Woodall

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
