Skegby: your questions answered
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What affects the price in Skegby
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
