How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Questions from Postwick
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you cover Postwick?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Postwick for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

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 does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Postwick, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
