Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

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.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
