Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace in Clermiston?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Read our pricing.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
