Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Questions from Queen Adelaide
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Queen Adelaide use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
