What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
- Plumbing leaks

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlord and trade work in Lower Withington
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Questions from Lower Withington
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work in Lower Withington?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Lower Withington from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover the entire of Cheshire East?
All of Cheshire East, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
