When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Whether it’s chips from dropped toiletries and crazing in the glaze, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Questions from Morice Town
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Morice Town is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What else we do in Morice Town
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Morice Town. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
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.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Morice Town as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
