Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including North Weston. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

North Weston: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover North Weston?
We do. We send a technician to North Weston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
