How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Goose Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole basin

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

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. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Goose Hill questions

What information do you need?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you work in Goose Hill?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Goose Hill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Get chips repaired early

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
