Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 typically the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Fittleton. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Fittleton: your questions answered

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Common problems we fix in Fittleton

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Chips around the rim
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks starting at the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What aftercare is recommended
