What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry

Repairing versus replacing in Ruloe
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ruloe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, 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 usually the cheaper route.
Questions from Ruloe
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are there extra charges for Ruloe?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Ruloe
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ruloe use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
