Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

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.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Common problems we fix in Seven Kings

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Seven Kings as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
