Common questions in Rolvenden Layne
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
When to call us in Rolvenden Layne
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An antique basin with chips
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
