Musbury: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Typical jobs include cracks starting at the waste and an antique basin with chips, in Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Musbury and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Repairing versus replacing in Musbury
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What affects the price in Musbury
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Musbury. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
