How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Questions from Holy Island
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What affects the price in Holy Island
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
