Repairs by material
Vitreous china

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Long Load. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
