Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Dundon Hayes, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dundon Hayes as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- 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 over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
