DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Lickey Hills questions

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you work in Lickey Hills?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Lickey Hills. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Lickey Hills

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

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 and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
