What else we do in Newsham
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Newsham. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
