What else we do in Ditton Priors
What we’re called out for in Ditton Priors
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A crack near the taps
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Crazing in the glaze
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
- What preparation is included
- How your room will be protected
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
What affects the price in Ditton Priors
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair

- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
Questions from Ditton Priors
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you come to Ditton Priors?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ditton Priors from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
