Should you replace it?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What affects the price in Boughton Malherbe
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Boughton Malherbe: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
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.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
