Crown East questions
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Crown East.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Crown East. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Can I fix it myself?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Crown East, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Crown East. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
