Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Hundred House: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you work in Hundred House?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Hundred House. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Powys.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Hundred House. Our prices are the same everywhere.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
