Red Hill questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do you cover the entire of Coventry?
All of Coventry, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you work in Red Hill?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Red Hill. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Repairing versus replacing in Red Hill
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What affects the price in Red Hill

- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
