DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire basin
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t 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.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
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 collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What we are called out for in Abercregan
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crack near the taps
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips around the rim
Before booking anyone
- When it can be used again
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
