What affects the price in Kirktown of Fetteresso
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin can mean 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t overtighten taps

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
