Repair or replace in Old Swan?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems.

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not 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’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Old Swan
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in Old Swan
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Old Swan. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus

- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Old Swan
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you come to Old Swan?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Old Swan. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
