What affects the price in Sibley's Green
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Sibley's Green. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- 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.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

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 generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
