Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Newton Abbot
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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 often lifts.
