Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Plumstead?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Plumstead. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
