What affects the price in Bishton
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Bishton. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bishton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NP18 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What else we do in Bishton
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
