Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Landlords, agents and businesses in Snainton
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
