Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newbiggin. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newbiggin. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

Common questions in Newbiggin

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Landlord and trade work in Newbiggin

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins

Repair or replace in Newbiggin?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A chipped basin edge

What to look for in a quote

10 questions to ask before booking

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
