DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Other services in Creswell
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No need to remove anything
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Creswell: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Creswell. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you work in Creswell?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Creswell. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What affects the price in Creswell
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Creswell. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How much damage there is
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
