Repair or replace in Cross Inn?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs 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 pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Cross Inn, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Landlord and trade work in Cross Inn
For anyone letting property in or around Cross Inn, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
