Repairing versus replacing in Newtown
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Newtown. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

FAQs for Newtown
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What affects the price in Newtown
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newtown. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Newtown and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newtown
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newtown as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
