What affects the price in Farringdon
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Farringdon. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
FAQs for Farringdon
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Repairing versus replacing in Farringdon
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Farringdon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before you book
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour-matched on site
- Same prices wherever you are

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
