Common questions in Goose Green
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Goose Green, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
