Prices and what affects them

- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Gannow Green questions
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
How much does sink repair cost in Gannow Green?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you need sink repair in Gannow Green?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- A chipped basin edge
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Before you book anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
