Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Bishop's Norton questions
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Bishop's Norton and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

The whole UK, including all of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
What we’re called out for in Bishop's Norton
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- An original basin worth saving

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One picture of the whole basin
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
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 collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
- Through cracks that let water out
