Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Farm Town. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
Most customers in Farm Town get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Farm Town questions
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Signs you need sink repair in Farm Town
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Look out for these signs:
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Crazing in the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price covers travel
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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 generally cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
