What else we do in Adeyfield
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Adeyfield get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
