The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Little Clacton
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Little Clacton
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
