Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Nunburnholme

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
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.
