What affects the price in Shearsby
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Shearsby, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

- Vanity unit basins

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What we are called out for in Shearsby
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- A crack near the taps
- Chips around the rim
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Shearsby. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
