Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you are in Inner Hope and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are crazing in the glaze and a chipped vanity basin.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inner Hope as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

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

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TQ7 postcode.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
