DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What we’re called out for in Kelvinbridge
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An antique basin with chips
- Crazing in the glaze
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
Should you replace it?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Kelvinbridge questions
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Do you cover Kelvinbridge?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Kelvinbridge and the rest of Glasgow. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kelvinbridge. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Kelvinbridge get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlord and trade work in Kelvinbridge
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
