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. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins

- How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
