Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What affects the price in Butterwick
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Something in shot to show the size
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 we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Questions from Butterwick
Which areas do you work in?
All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you come to Butterwick?
We do. We send a technician to Butterwick for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Are there extra charges for Butterwick?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
