How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Hightown, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kirklees and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hightown. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

Hightown questions

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.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you cover the entire of Kirklees?

Across the UK, and that includes Hightown. Prices don’t change with location.

Will the price change on the day?

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

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.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What affects the price in Hightown

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
