What affects the price in Capenhurst
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Capenhurst. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
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’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Questions from Capenhurst
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you come to Capenhurst?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Capenhurst. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Landlord and trade work in Capenhurst
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Capenhurst as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
