Should you replace it?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Questions from Putley
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Putley and the rest of Herefordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you work in Putley?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Putley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Putley use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
