No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Other services in Roa Island
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
What affects the price in Roa Island
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- 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.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Landlord and trade work in Roa Island
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Roa Island as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
If you manage property in Roa Island, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Roa Island, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repairing versus replacing in Roa Island
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Roa Island. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
