Lovesome Hill questions
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairs by material
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.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Lovesome Hill
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Do you need sink repair in Lovesome Hill?
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Crazing in the glaze
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crack near the taps
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Comparing quotes
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How changes to the job are handled
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
