Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Common questions in Woodend

How soon can you come?

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

Do you cover Woodend?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Woodend and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Will you remove the sink?

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

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Often. Send us photos and we will tell you.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we are called out for in Woodend

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • An original basin worth saving

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Woodend

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

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

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.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
