We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Packington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we handle sink repair in Packington
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are fine cracks across the glaze and cracks starting at the waste.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Packington
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What else we do in Packington
What affects the price in Packington
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Packington. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlord and trade work in Packington
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Packington use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
