Common questions in East Pennard
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Are there extra charges for East Pennard?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you need sink repair in East Pennard?
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An original basin worth saving
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What affects the price in East Pennard
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire basin
For a price in East Pennard, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Pennard as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
