How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Landlord and trade work in Ancoats
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ancoats use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
For a price in Ancoats, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
