Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business

Take a look at our prices page.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Maiden Head questions

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work in Maiden Head?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Maiden Head and the rest of North Somerset. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Maiden Head.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Maiden Head. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, 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 you book.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Maiden Head, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
