What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
Eton questions
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What affects the price in Eton
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Eton. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SL4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace in Eton?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
