Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What affects the price in Crawley Down
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RH10 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Crawley Down
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repair or replace in Crawley Down?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
