DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Questions from Kemble
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kemble use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Kemble, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

- An original basin worth saving

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Kemble. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
