Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out

Deeping St James questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you come to Deeping St James?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Deeping St James from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
