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. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. 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.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets

Astcote questions
Are there extra charges for Astcote?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you work in Astcote?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Astcote and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
