What affects the price in Melton

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Melton. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Melton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

  • A chipped vanity basin

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Melton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Melton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Questions from Melton

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Are there extra charges for Melton?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across East Riding of Yorkshire.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
