Common questions in Newnham
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Newnham and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get 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 quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Repairing versus replacing in Newnham
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before you book
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in Newnham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
