What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 typically the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Ross-on-Wye

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ross-on-Wye. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Ross-on-Wye get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Ross-on-Wye

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
