What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Delabole
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Delabole. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Delabole
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Delabole use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What else we do in Delabole
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
