What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Brosscroft questions
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
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’ll get one combined price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you come to Brosscroft?
We do. Technicians travel to Brosscroft from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Landlord and trade work in Brosscroft
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brosscroft use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
