Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Horden
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Horden, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairing versus replacing in Horden
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
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.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
