Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Old Rayne. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Questions from Old Rayne
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Aberdeenshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are there extra charges for Old Rayne?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
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 chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy 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, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Landlord and trade work in Old Rayne
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Old Rayne use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
