What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- No need to remove anything

Rawreth questions
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price

What affects the price in Rawreth
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Rawreth. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire basin
Most customers in Rawreth get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 usually the cheaper route.
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 photos, as it can add time.
When to call us in Rawreth
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Crazing in the glaze

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
