Materials and what they mean for the repair

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Barrow. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Common questions in Barrow
How soon can you come?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
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.
When to call us in Barrow
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Don’t overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
