When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
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 crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Common questions in Sedgwick
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Sedgwick and the rest of Cumbria. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
