What affects the price in Chatter Alley
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Chatter Alley. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Questions from Chatter Alley
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you come to Chatter Alley?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Chatter Alley and the rest of Wiltshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
If you manage property in Chatter Alley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- One price list for the entire UK
- Everything repaired in place
- We leave the room as we found it

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair

- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive

- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
