Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Oaks in Charnwood. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins

Is there a guarantee?

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
