How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
Preparing for the visit

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

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.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
