DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
What we are called out for in Sawley
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks starting at the waste
- An original basin worth saving
- A chipped vanity basin
What your quote should include
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Same prices wherever you are

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What affects the price in Sawley
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- How many areas need work
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Sawley, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Questions from Sawley
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you come to Sawley?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Sawley. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Sawley.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
