Common problems we fix in Queen's Bower
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A crazed, tired basin
- An original basin worth saving
For older houses around Queen's Bower, near landmarks such as All Saints' Church, it may still have original basins or a period toilet, which are worth repairing rather than replacing.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed, with no obligation. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole basin
Most clients in Queen's Bower get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
