Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Saddington. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins

Should you replace it?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Saddington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Saddington

If you manage property in Saddington, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Questions from Saddington

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
